Family Welcome & Meet the Teachers Event
Thank you to all of our families who joined us for our Welcome Back Open House on September 24. It was wonderful to see students proudly sharing their learning spaces and to connect with parents and guardians as we celebrated a successful start to the school year. We appreciate your partnership and support of our school community!
EHS Terry Fox Run – Friday, October 2
Eric Harvie School is proud to continue our long-standing tradition of participating in the Terry Fox Run. Since our school's opening, this event has been an opportunity for our community to come together in support of Terry’s dream of a world without cancer.
This year, EHS has set a fundraising goal of $5,000. Our Grade 5 students will be helping to brainstorm a special school-wide reward if we reach our goal. Stay tuned for more details!
We invite you to share our school fundraising page with family and friends:
https://schools.terryfox.ca/137500
For those who prefer to give in person, a donation jar will be available in the school office throughout the first week of October. Please note that tax receipts are available for online donations only.
We would also love to have volunteers join us for this special event. This year we are planning on having our run through the community to enjoy some of the natural areas in Tuscany. If you are able to volunteer, please see the: Terry Fox Volunteer Sign up
Action Required: Complete Online Forms By Sept. 14 – PAST DUE
Dear Parent / Legal Guardian,
Each year, schools have a variety of forms that parents / legal guardians / independent students are required to complete or review and update, some of which are paper and others online.
Important | These forms are a legal requirement from Alberta Education and Childcare for funding purposes. If forms remain incomplete, it may result in a reduction in funding for the Calgary Board of Education.
In CBE, the forms in an online format (SchoolEngage) are:
- Demographic Verification - 2026-27 – This required form is an Alberta Education and Childcare requirement as proof of Registration for funding purposes and includes your child’s personal information as well as parent / legal guardian contact information.
- Citizenship Information Update - 2026-27 – This form becomes available and is required to complete if you change your child’s citizenship information on the Demographic Verification form.
- Annual Authorization - 2026-27 – Combines the following forms:
o School District Use of Personal Information - explains how CBE uses personal information in providing education services.
o Consent for CBE Use of Student Information – provides an option to grant / not grant consent for additional use of student information by school/district and third parties.
o Consent for Use of Student Information by News Media and Outside Groups (Third Party) - provides an option to grant / not grant consent for additional use of student information by outside groups and third parties
o Consent for Student Participation in Annual CBE Surveys – these surveys support school and system planning and help improve programs and supports offered to students
o Parental Opt-In for Notifiable curriculum for students in grades 3 to 9 – written consent of parents prior to providing instructions or materials that deal primarily and explicitly with human sexuality, gender identity or sexual orientation. Students are unable to participate in this portion of the curriculum unless consent is granted.
SchoolEngage is one of the applications found in your MyCBE account. This is the same account used to pay fees, view academic information, book school conferences, register to volunteer etc.
If you do not have a MyCBE account, click Create a MyCBE Account on the MyCBE page. For online help, refer to MyCBE - Creating an Account (includes instructions and a video).
