Our Grade 6 celebration will be on June 22 at 1:30pm. All Grade 6 families are welcome to attend this farewell. This is a change in dates…please note the change. Caricature permission forms and money are due back immediately for Grade 6 students.

From the Office – Outstanding Fees

As the academic year draws to a close, we would ask parents to check your fees posted in your MyCBE account. All accounts must be cleared prior to the end of the school year. The office closes over the summer and will not be available to assist with any questions on your account. Updates on your accounts will be emailed between June 9 – 16. Any questions need to be referred to the office by June 23. Please email Mrs. Ewart is you have any questions eoewart@cbe.ab.ca

If you require a waiver application for Central fees (ie Noon Supervision and Bussing), this needs to be submitted to Student fees no later than June 30. Applications will not be considered after this date for the 2022-2023 academic year. Fee Waivers are handled by centrally by Student Fees and not by the school. We are not able to adjust fees at the school level.

Waiver considerations, for school planned field trips from this year, were due to the office by June 9 2023 to the school. Please email Mrs. Robinson agrobinson@cbe.ab.ca if you require support for any field trip fees on your account.

The CBE will start sending overdue accounts to Collections in August.

From the Library

We have a large number of overdue books out in the community. We are asking all families to please take a look around your homes for any books from the school library. Mrs. Jackson, our Library Assistant, will be sending out invoices to those students whose books have been outstandingly overdue.

All books and fees will need to be returned by June 16 as we start to do inventory for the end of the year.

Casino Fundraiser

We are in need of a couple more people to make this casino happen!! We have had a change in the sign -up and now need to fill the following:

Cashier - 2nd Shift 6:45PM - 4:00AM 06/24/2023 (Sat.) MUST HAVE position

Also, we are still needing people to sign-up as back-up volunteers. These people will only be called in the event that someone is not able to fulfill their planned role.

Below is a list of the shifts that still need back-up support.

Back-up Support - 2nd Shift 6:45PM - 4:00AM 06/24/2023 (Sat.) – 2 spots
Back-up Support – 1st Shift 10:00AM - 7:15PM 06/25/2023 (Sun.) – 2 spots

If you are able to help out in the event that it is needed, please sign up at: https://www.signupgenius.com/g...

The casino dates are June 24 and 25 ... Saturday and Sunday. It is important to note that the end time is not likely to be 4:00am. They often finish early, and you can leave once the count is done.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has stepped up to support Chaparral School with this fundraiser. It is the biggest fundraiser that the School Council does and it so valuable to our students. It is incredibly important that we make it happen.

Please note: we MUST fulfill these positions in order to hold the Casino. Your help is very appreciated.

Weekly Mantra

I Am Fierce (SEL Competency: Self-Awareness, Self Management)

When you are fierce, you work to conquer your fears and make your voice heard. It means respectfully standing up for what you believe in, standing up for people in need, and leading the way. Be fierce! Be unstoppable! As obstacles come, make it a point to not let them stop you.

When the dark clouds come, keep going. This storm will pass.

Face your fears and do it anyway
