Alberta Power (2000) LTD Donation
Forestburg School was the incredibly fortunate recipient of $2000 from Alberta Power (2000) LTD that was to be used to fund the replacement of some of the chromebooks in our school. While this donation actually came in the 2020-2021 school year, due to supply chain issues and computer chip shortages we were unable to purchase the new chromebooks until this year.
Forestburg School wants to thank Alberta Power for the generous donation that will benefit students at this school for many years to come.
Bussing for 2022-2023 School Year
Online bussing applications open on June 1st, 2022. Students who will be actively riding a rural bus to/from school in June 2022 do not need to reapply for busing, IF rural address AND your school remains the same. If your child will NOT be actively riding the bus in June 2022, you will need to reapply for busing.
** All new rural Kindergarten students need to apply for bussing even if they have a sibling already riding the bus.

Senior High Track and Field
The Senior High Track and Field had a very successful season. Our Areas track meet was held in Stettler, on Wednesday, May 18th. We took five athletes to the event. During the cool, windy day, all of our athletes were able to qualify for the Zones competition in Camrose. The following Wednesday, May 25th, we took four athletes to the Zone track meet at ECCHS in Camrose. We had a few top four finishes but no one was able to qualify in the top two for Provincials.
