Our School

Rosemont School is located in northwest Calgary, near Confederation Park. It was built in 1959; an addition in 1966 nearly doubled the size of the building.

 An exterior renovation in 2017 brought new energy-efficient windows and enhanced insulation and siding. Our naturalization area is a work in progress. During the exterior renovation, trees and shrubs near the school were cut down with a view to regrowth over four to six years. Subsequent landscape remediation and parent support make this area important as an outdoor classroom and a community retreat. 

Our students walk to school, are driven to school, or take the bus to school. Most students stay for lunch. Rosemont Community Childcare (private operator) runs a before- and after-school program onsite. The community is highly supportive of the school.  The Rosemont School Council (RSC) and the Rosemont Fundraising Society (RFS) give parents the opportunity to be active in school decisions and contribute to student success.

​​Our School's Commitment to Truth and Reconciliation

We are committed to acknowledging and supporting the implementation of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission 94 Calls to Action specific to education. Our school, along with all CBE schools, made a TRC Commitment to Action. On June 21, we renewed our commitment, which can be found under Resources.​​

Acknowledging the Land

We would like to acknowledg​​e the traditional territories and oral practices of the Blackfoot Nations, which includes the Siksika, the Piikani and the Kainai. We also acknowledge the Tsuut’ina and Stoney Nakoda First Nations, the Métis Nation (Region 3), and all people who make their homes in the Treaty 7 region of Southern Alberta.​

​​​School Development Plan

​Each year, our school prepares a development plan with input from teachers, school staff, students and parents. We review many sources of data, including report cards, provincial achievement test results and school surveys. Based on this information, we create our plan identifying targeted areas for growth. Our school development plan is not meant to represent all of the work that takes place in our school, but rather it focuses on specific areas for improvement.​​​

​​​​​School Improvement Results Report

Our school also prepares a results plan, which looks at our previous school year. It shows our students’ achievement and progress in meeting the goals and outcomes as set out by the CBE and Alberta Education, outlines some of the highlights of our school development plan and gives an overview of our school. You can look on the CBE website for system-wide results​.
