Dear Andrew Sibbald Families,  

Thank you to the parents who joined us online last week for our School Council and Parent Association meetings. We appreciate your input as we plan the upcoming school year. If your family has not yet completed the online form around your intentions for fall 2025, please do, as these numbers help inform staffing decisions and resource allocation. Thank you!  

On behalf of our staff, we wish you all a restful and rejuvenating Spring Break ahead. School resumes for students on March 31st.  

Online Conferences This Week  

Registration for Parent Teacher Conferences opens Monday, March 17th at 9:00 am through your MyCBE Parent account. Please reach out to andrewsibbald@cbe.ab.ca with any questions around Conference booking.  

Passion for Glass Residency Thank You 

Thank you to our Parent Association for supporting and funding the Passion for Glass art residency for students. An additional thank you to the many volunteers that helped each day with this residency. Students at Andrew Sibbald chose a theme related to their learning and the stories from the land. All art pieces have been sent to the glass studio to be fired in the kiln and will be returned to the school when they are ready. You can check out a few images from the week here. You’ll also see much of this learning visible on our teacher’s blogs.
