Attendance

Attendance Line: 403-777-6260 ext. 1.

Regular and prompt attendance is important for all students. Children learn responsibility by being punctual. If your child is going to be absent or late please contact the school office at 403-777-6260 ‘1’ before 9:00 AM to let us know. If your child is ill, please leave a message explaining the symptoms.

If the school is not contacted, we will phone you as soon as possible after attendance is taken in the morning and the afternoon to confirm the safety of your child.

​​​Attendance in MyCBE

Our student information system, MyCBE provides parents, guardians and students with access to detailed attendance information. For help creating an account or signing in, please visit Technical Support for Students & Parents.

Attendance records are available in Grades and Attendance or Attendance History. Common attendance codes are:

  • (P) =Present
  • A = Absent
  • L = Late
  • IL = Illness
  • AP = Absent - Parent Called
  • LVE = Leave Early
  • MA = Appointment

A legend of all the attendance codes are available at the bottom of the attendance charts.. To discuss any discrepancies, please contact the school office.

Attendance Expectations at the CBE

We believe there is a strong correlation between attendance and effective education. The CBE Administrative Regulation 6020 - Attendance of Students​ regulation applies to all of our students, and outlines the responsibilities for students, parents and school staff.​​​​​​​​

We wish a peaceful and healthy Ramadan to all everyone in the CBE community observing this holy month. #WeAreCBE https://t.co/CB8xvt5pje
