We are actively planning our school budget for the upcoming school year. If there has been any change from when you filled out your questionnaire in February and your child(ren) will not be attending our school in 2024-2025 can you please let us know as soon as possible by emailing cranston@cbe.ab.ca or calling the office at 403-777-6267. If you have notified us already about leaving Cranston School for the fall there is NO NEED for further action. Having accurate enrolment projections helps us plan effectively, preventing the need to realign how many classrooms we have in September. If your Grade 4 and/or 5 student is attending Dr. George Stanley, they will be automatically designated to that school for the fall. If your child will be remaining with us for the upcoming school year, there is no action you need to take. They will automatically be enrolled into their next grade.

We’ve had more complaints from our neighbours about blocking driveways and crosswalks, illegal U- turns, jaywalking and children running across the street and darting between vehicles at drop off and pick up. Please help us and lead by example by abiding by basic traffic laws and being courteous to our neighbours. This is for EVERYONE’s safety. Thank you. 

Music 

Students in Grades 1-3 continue their work with the instruments of the Orchestra. Grade 3 students have been exploring the songs and poems of Dan Brown’s, “Wild Symphony.’’ Ask them what their favourite animal has been so far. 

The grade 4 and 5 students, what can I say? They pulled off some amazing performances this week. I am so proud of all the hard work each and every student put in to make their final performances at Cranston School so memorable. I am going into the weekend with a happy heart and hope you are too.
