The CBE's App​​roach to Community Engagement

Dialogue is the Calgary Board of Education’s approach to community engagement. It is a mutually respectful exchange of ideas that acknowledges and celebrates the diversity within the CBE community. It represents our ongoing commitment to involve people in decisions that affect them.

We know we make better decisions when we listen and work together to solve problems and find solutions. When we do, our students are better equipped to become successful citizens who contribute their ideas, passion and energy to society.

There can be no dialogue without you. Find out more about Dialogue as well as current and past system engagement initiatives on the CBE’s website​.​​​​​​

West Springs School Planning Survey

As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we invited all our parents to share their voice around the topic of our School Development Plan and school fees through a survey, called the School Planning Survey. 

Our administration team has been taking up your inquiries and using the data from the engagement to inform decision making with regards to our budget and fees.
