SAINT'S SCOOP
St. Martin's Catholic Elementary School - February 24, 2023
CATHOLIC SCHOOL REVIEW
A reminder that in early March (March 1 to 3), we will be conducting a Catholic School Review in our St. Martin's school community.
We greatly appreciate your perspective by completing this short survey. The survey closes on Monday, February 28th at 9 AM. The purpose of this process of gathering, analyzing and synthesizing information is to assist in strengthening the School Education Assurance Plan that continues to move and improve our school in the area of Catholicity. Our ultimate goal is to support faith formation and impact student learning.
Thank you to everyone who has completed or will complete the survey! If you have any questions about the process, please contact Mr. Kucy at the school.

2022/23 Alberta Education Assurance (AEA) Survey
If you have a child in grade 4 or 5 or 6, you have also received a survey from Alberta Education through the mail as well. Please watch for this.
We would encourage you to complete the survey. The AEA Parent survey has been extended to March 17th as there have been delays with mail outs for parent packages from Alberta Education.
Students in Grades 4 and 5 and 6 will also complete these surveys as well. These will be conducted at school facilitated by St. Martin's School staff.
Thank-you for sharing your voice with EICS.

SCHOOL OFFICE REMINDERS...
If calling during lunch time (12:05 - 12:45) please leave a message with our student office helpers and Ms. Dubuc will return your call as soon as she can.
Remember to phone and book an appointment if you need to come into the school @ 780-632-2266.
Parent Volunteers
Parents wanting to volunteer at the school or for field trips need to have a Criminal Record Check, Child Intervention Check and sign a Volunteer Confidentiality Undertaking form.
Request forms for these can be picked up at the school office. If you are unsure if you have these documents already completed you can call the office and we can check. These checks can take a while to process so if you are wanting to volunteer please get these done ASAP.
End of day phone messages to students
If you have a message to pass onto your child for end of day arrangements please call the school office no later than 2:45 pm.
It is very difficult to find a child once they have left the classroom at the end of the school day.
Parent/visitor access
All visitors to the school must sign in at the office.
Student absences
Please report student absences to the office or through school messenger.
