100 Days of School! Yesterday, Mrs. O'Keefe's class celebrated 100 Days of School—and what better way to do it than with creativity, perseverance, and a Let Grow moment!Grade 1 student Valour had his heart set on a monster truck shirt for the big day, so instead of just buying one, he learned how to make it himself! Yesterday, he tackled a new skill—weeding vinyl and using an iron to press his design. With focus, patience, and a whole lot of excitement, he created an awesome 100 Days shirt that’s as cool as his determination!
Way to go, Valour! Your hard work and willingness to learn something new is what Let Grow is all about—building confidence, independence, and creativity. 100 days of learning, and many more to come!
ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th
As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.
In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.
As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
