Message to Families
Greetings West Dover Families,
As we begin another week of learning, we would like to share a few important reminders and updates with our school community.
Student Survey Permission Forms
Last week, survey permission forms were sent home to all Kindergarten to Grade 6 and EES families.
Surveys are an important way for us to gather student voice and better understand the experiences and perspectives of our students.
One example is the CBE Student Survey, which gathers student feedback on topics such as:
- Safety at school
- Learning experiences
- School culture
- Support and help students receive at school
New This Year: Parent or guardian signatures are now required for student participation in surveys.
We kindly ask all families to return their permission forms, regardless of whether you choose to provide consent.
Your cooperation helps us ensure that every family's decision is recorded.
Dental Cleaning Services | Grades 3 and 6
Permission forms were also sent home last week to families of students in Grades 3 and 6 regarding access to dental cleaning services.
These services will be provided by dental hygienists from The Alex Centre in Inglewood.
The Alex will bring a mobile dental services bus to the school, which will be parked in the community centre parking lot.
Expected Date: Sometime in November 2026
The exact date has not yet been determined. Additional information will be shared once scheduling is confirmed.
School Council Hot Dog Day
A big thank you to our West Dover School Council for organizing last Friday's Hot Dog Day!
We appreciate the time and effort that went into making this event possible for our students.
Our next Hot Dog Day is planned for spring 2027.
Cold Weather Reminder | Winter Clothing
As temperatures begin to drop, we would like to remind families to ensure students arrive at school dressed appropriately for the colder weather.
Please remember to send your child with:
- A warm toque
- Mittens or gloves
- A suitable winter jacket
Winter Jackets Available for Students
If your child needs a winter jacket, please contact the school office.
We have a number of winter jackets available that we can provide to students who need them.
School Office: 403-777-8260
Please don't hesitate to reach out if your family could benefit from this support.
Looking forward to another fantastic week of learning!
Roy Strum
Principal, West Dover School
