Spare/Study Block

In order to support a productive use of time, all students with a spare are expected to be working in the 3rd Floor Learning Commons or outside the building and off campus.

Course Change Requests

Due to the volume of course change requests and the limited available movement in classes, students’ final opportunity to request changes to their timetables will be Wednesday, September 6 from 3:30-5:00 in the Hub.

Good Neighbours in the Community

Please ensure that students are mindful of the restrictions in the area such as not parking by a fire hydrant. Any cars parked inappropriately will be ticketed and towed resulting in a fine. Please remind all students to ensure that they are following appropriate speed limits within the surrounding communities as well as following all traffic laws.

Important School Dates

We follow the CBE traditional calendar. The calendar sets common start and end days, non-instructional days and holidays. For our school’s additional non-instructional days, late entries, early dismissal days and events, see the JCS school calendar page.

School ID and Photos

For school security purposes, all students are required to have a school ID. School ID catch up photos will be offered on September 13 for any students that missed the initial dates. Photo retakes will be on October 19.

School Supplies

Please bring your own basic school supplies, such as pens, pencils, and binders with paper. Your teachers will let you know of any specific additional supplies required.

School Fees

Where can I find fees associated with courses?

Your child’s school fees can be viewed and paid through the MyCBE,

What if I Can't Afford to Pay School Fees?

If you are unable to pay school fees, please access this CBE What if I Can't Afford to Pay School Fees? document for further information.

Please contact Linda Kowalchuk by email at llkowalchuk@cbe.ab.ca or call the school at 403-817-3600 Ext 2007 if you have further questions.

Student Parking Passes for 2023-24

Grade 12 students have priority for purchasing a JCS parking pass. An email was sent to all grade 12’s with the application. Students who submit a parking application will receive a confirmation email with further instructions. Grade 12 students who did not receive an email, can contact Linda Kowalchuk. Grade 11 and 10 students will receive an email in mid-September inviting them to apply for a parking pass.

A parking fee appearing in MyCBE is confirmation that they will receive a pass. Once the online payment is complete, they will be issued a parking pass through the Business Office. Parking fees include GST, and are as follows:

Full Year (Sept to June) $40
Semester One (Sept to Jan) $20
Semester Two (Feb to June) $20
