Athletic Tryouts  

Our Panther teams are starting up already! Students in grades 6-9 can join the Cross Country Running team and all interested students will make the team. Students in grades 8-9 can try out for Senior Basketball. Students in grades 6-8 can try out for Junior Basketball. Grade 8 students are encouraged to try out for the senior team first and can try out for the junior team if they do not make the senior team. 

 All students received an Annual Authorization for Athletics form from their PE teachers last week. Students will need to return this form to be able to participate in teams. If you need a copy of the form, please ask your PE teacher. 

MyCBE Account 

All families should create an account for MyCBE. If you have an account from last year, it should still be active. The MyCBE app is used for demographic form verification, applying for volunteer clearance, viewing grades and attendance for students, managing school bus registration and many other important pieces. Support for the application can be found here: https://support.cbe.ab.ca/mycbe  

MyBusStop App 

Families who use the yellow school bus are encouraged to download the MyBusStop App. This updates the bus times in the event of an unexpected delay. Information about how to use the MyBusStop App can be found here: https://cbe.ab.ca/schools/busing-and-transportation/Documents/MyBusStop-Parent-Brochure.pdf#search=mybusstop%20app Your child’s bus route and school code are available in the MyCBE App in the tab “Bus Routes and Stops.”
