HPS Apr 2 Weekly Update
High Park School Memo
Week of Apr. 2 - Apr. 5
Spring Fling
Thank you to all who came out and also volunteered for our Spring Fling on Mar. 15! We had a great time.
PAL Creekside Nursery Fundraiser
PAL will be trying out a new fundraising initiative this spring! In partnership with Creekside Home and Garden Centre, we will be offering vouchers for 12-inch hanging baskets at a discounted rate! Watch for details and order forms coming home in your child’s backpack in the coming days!
Field Trip Forms
At High Park, we love allowing our students to learn outside of the classroom by going on field trips. It is very important that all field trip forms are reviewed, signed, and returned as soon as possible and by the date indicated on the form, to ensure buses can leave on time.
2023-24 School Year Registration
If you haven’t already done so, it’s time to register for the next school year! That includes busing if you need it. Registering by Friday, March 22nd deadline will help us immensely in planning for next year both at our school and at the PSD Transportation department. Work is currently underway on building bus routes for next year already.
Any applications received after the application deadline may not be processed in time for the first day of school. If your child does not have a valid bus pass for the 2024-2025 school year, they will not be able to ride the bus.
Visit https://powerschool.psd.ca/public/ and log into your parent account. Once inside the Parent Portal:
- Select your child’s name in the blue bar at the top of the screen.
- Select the RSVP icon on the left side of the screen.
- Begin reviewing all of your current Student Information we have on file, and follow the instructions on the screen to navigate through the various tabs in the form (Student Info, Address, Contacts, Medical, etc.).
If you aren’t able to retrieve your login credentials using the “Forgot Username or Password?” link on the sign-in page, please contact the school directly for assistance logging in to the Parent Portal.
School Fee Statements
School fee statements have been sent out for any outstanding accounts. Please make arrangements to pay these either through the Parent Portal or our office as soon as possible. Please note that an expectation for participation in many extracurricular activities is that school fee accounts are up-to-date.
Hot Lunch
Hot Lunch is offered to students by the Parent Advisory League from October to May. More information can be found on our High Park school website under the Lunch Program. You must register each school year in order to place an order. The code is always HPHL. The deadline to order hot lunches for April is March 25.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to give me a call at the school office at (780) 963-2222 or email me at adrienne.owen@psd.ca to connect.
