Business Office
Our Business Manager, Deepa Madhavan is available at 403-817-3400. School fees and other charges are handled through the Business Manager’s Office which is located beside the Main Office. Students are encouraged to make use of the Business Office during their breaks and before and after school.
Sample of things that can be done in the Business Office:

- Pay your school fees.
- Pay to replace a lost student ID card.
- Purchase a student parking pass.
