Hello families,

Staffing Update

We are excited to welcome 2 new staff members: Miranda Ritchie and Maria Zambonelli. They are both amazing Education Assistants who have been added to our Banting and Best School familiy through Classroom Complexity Funding. They will both begin next week and will support student complexity and learning intervention. 

Reminder: Please complete Enrolment Forms 

Having accurate data about which students will be attending our school next year is critical in planning. This allow us to staff and determine classes that best support each student. You can fill out this information on your child’s MyCBE account where you book conferences and access their report cards. Please contact the school if you have any questions or special circumstances. 

My First Ride 

On May 23 & 24, the CBE and its partners will host the My 1st Ride bus orientation program. This free event is designed to familiarize first-time school bus riders and their families with the experience of taking the yellow bus to and from school. Families are encouraged to register to secure a spot. Link
