Announcements
Transportation Registration for the 2024-2025 School Year
Yellow school bus service levels and proposed fees for the 2024-2025 school year have now been posted. The cost will be $260/student or $130 for kindergarten students (no change from the current school year).
What you need to know:
∙ Registration is available by logging into your MyCBE parent account and clicking on the Fees, Waivers and Service Registration tile.
∙ Families must register by Sunday, June 16 for students to be added to routes for the start of the next school year.
∙ Transportation will continue to accept registrations after the deadline; however, students are added to the closest existing stop with available space. Processing times could be up to six weeks at the beginning of the school year due to volume.
We encourage all families to register by the deadline if they think they will use yellow school bus transportation this fall. You can cancel before the end of September with no financial penalty. Register Now for Yellow School Bus Service - Ranchlands School (cbe.ab.ca)
Volunteer Tea
Please feel free to join us for our volunteer tea happening June 7 from 8:30am - 9:30am. There will be tea, coffee, and small treats to enjoy to show our deepest appreciation for all that you do at this school. We will have a small speech and presentation from students from 9:15am - 9:30am. We ask for no students in the gym during our tea time but we will have teachers supervising the playground for you to leave them outside from whenever you arrive until school begins. An invitation will be sent home on Friday, May 24 with a link to an RSVP; please reply to the RSVP by June 3 at the latest. We can’t wait to see you there!
