Preparing for the 2017 – 2018 School Year
 
Students Moving:
Please notify the Royal Oak School office if your family is moving before September 1, 2017 out of the Royal Oak/Rocky Ridge.  This will help us in planning for the next school year.  Please email the school at royaloak@cbe.ab.ca before Thursday, May 18th with your child’s name and grade to state they will not be attending Royal Oak School for the 2017 – 2018 school year.  For the students in Grade Three it is a natural transition to W.D. Pratt and that transition happens at the school level. There is no need to contact the school if your child is in Grade Three and moving on to Grade Four.
 
Parent Requests for Student Placement:
The following information is provided to clarify questions about their child’s placement for next year.  This should not be interpreted as an open invitation for student placement requests.
 
A great deal of time and consideration is put into organizing classes.  Many factors are taken into account such as a balance of girls and boys, student abilities, special education needs, English Second Language learners, student learning styles, teaching styles and overall school organization.  Your child’s teacher, in consultation with other teachers of the same grade, will meet with the school administration to discuss and determine student class placement for next year.  We have the best interest of all students in mind. 
Should you feel you have a significant “education” circumstance that you would like considered in your child’s placement for next year, please follow the following procedure. 
ü  Make your one request in writing (multiple requests based upon class organization, friendships, etc. unfortunately cannot be accommodated).
ü  Please do not request a specific teacher as the teachers’ grade assignments are not finalized until later in the planning process.
If you have educational reasons for requesting a specific class placement for your child, please emailroyaloak@cbe.ab.ca before Thursday, May 18th.

Calgary
We are inquiring into our 3rd and final community in Canada... Calgary! An amazing opportunity for our students to build upon their knowledge of our city from Grade 1, and now consider it within the context of Canadian communities. We are beginning to look at the landmarks and symbols that represent our prairie community.
