As parking can be difficult outside the school in the morning, we wanted to remind parents of two options that are available to you.  One is available at all times and that is to park in the alley south of the school parking lot along the side.  The other option is to drop off your children to enter the school through the playground back door. 

The proper way to do this is to come into the parking lot through the alley (same as carpool line) and to let your children out to go in through the playground back door. (not the doors near the parking lot).  There is an intercom and a doorbell for Akiva next to the door. Please be aware that cars will be coming into the parking lot and we ask you to be courteous and cautious of other people.

Thank you to everyone who came to the first fundraiser planning meeting. There will be a follow up meeting on Monday, January 30th at 6:30 PM. If you have any questions or suggestions please speak to Mrs. Mashiah.

Would you like to sponsor a school event in honour of a relative or friend?

There are many ways to sponsor activities or events at Akiva. 

Here are some ways:

A day of Hot Lunch $150

Holiday Assembly $180

Field Trip for a class $250 

Pre-School Snack $50

Library Books $36

As an annual check-up on the education system, the Accountability Pillar provides an opportunity for Alberta Education and school authorities to ensure that we are equipping students for success.

 

The Accountability Pillar uses a set of 16 indicators consisting of surveys of students, parents and teachers on various aspects of quality; student outcomes such as dropout and high school completion rates; and provincial assessments of student learning.

 

From January to the end of February, Alberta Education will be conducting the annual Accountability Pillar Survey.

 

Your participation in the survey helps provide important information on the quality of education your child is receiving, so we encourage you to return your survey promptly.

 

Survey results will be available to school authorities in May 2016, and will be reported publicly as part of their 3-Year Education Plans and Annual Education Results Reports.
