Each year, Alberta Education and Childcare invites parents and guardians to take part in the Education Assurance Survey to gather insights into student learning experiences and school environments.
The 2026 survey is due by March 6th, 2026. Your school has shared access details.
Thank you for being part of the conversation and supporting continuous improvement in education.

Gem School is introducing a new Kindergarten program for the 2026–2027 school year.
Families with a child who will be 5 years old by December 31, 2026 are invited to attend an information morning: Monday, February 9 from 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
This session is an opportunity to learn more about the program and what to expect in Kindergarten at Gem School.
At Grasslands, we care deeply about every child’s learning journey. Over time, the odd absences can add up, especially in the early years, and we want families to have the information they need to support success.

These drills are designed to prepare us to stay safe in a
real emergency. Emergency drills can be a bit unsettling, but they're a crucial way for everyone to know exactly what to do and where to go if a real emergency ever happens.
