Oki, Danit'ada, Âba wathtec, Tânisi, Taanishi, Bonjour, Hello, Sansom Community 

The tragic events at the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School in British Columbia have shocked and saddened all of us. The Calgary Board of Education sends our thoughts and condolences to the school, community and all those impacted by this event. Schools are part of the broader community, and we recognize the deep impact this tragedy has had. As educators, we share in the community’s sorrow and extend our sympathy and support to all those affected. Here is a link to a message from the CBE: https://clarencesansom.cbe.ab.ca/news/cbe-expresses-condolences-to-the-tumbler-ridge-secondary-school-community-20260211163646

Next week will be a short week due to Family Day holiday on Monday, February 16th.
