Help Keep Our School Zones Safe!

A new school year is upon us and soon school zones will be busy. It is an exciting time for students but unfortunately, congested school zones can be dangerous.

Our staff is back in the building and working hard to be ready for our new and returning students! Families can expect an EDSBY message or email from their child's teacher Thursday or Friday with information about what to bring and where to meet on the first day of school. 

For 2024-2025 families have two options to purchase their school supplies:

1. Use the supply lists liked here to purchase your own supplies grade 1-8, and here for kindergarten supplies.

On Wednesday, May 8, our safety patrol captains were part of two commercials filmed for CAA to promote the School Safety Patrol program and keeping school zones safe. The captains starred as patrollers and pedestrians as the videographer captured a wide variety of shots. Some of the captains even had speaking parts. These commercials will be featured on tv all across the province in the coming weeks. Congratulations to our captains; not only are they great patrollers but they are also wonderful actors!
