Dear Parents/Guardians,  

What a busy week we have had here at Mount View. Students have enjoyed working together, learning from one another and completing their second round of enrichment. We have been thankful for the jokes, smiles and conversations that kids have wanted to share with us in the office-it really is the BEST part of our job.  

Informational Items: 

Safety 

When dropping your student off, and picking them up, please use the crosswalk. We cannot ensure the safety of everyone when people are jay-walking to get to school. The area in front of the school is very busy and proper use of the crosswalk, ensures that all pedestrians are visible. 

Please also do not cut through the parking lot at any time. This is also a busy space with cars backing up and limited space to do so. Drivers do not expect to have pedestrians crossing through this area and this poses a safety risk. Please ensure you are always walking around the perimeter of the school and not through the parking lot.   

Jacket Racket – please donate winter outerwear  

Jacket Racket has been providing clean, gently used winter jackets to Calgary children since the 1980’s. The project runs every year from mid-October to mid-November. Coats, snow pants, hats and mittens are collected, sorted and distributed by a group of dedicated volunteers. The distribution is done through the Calgary Board of Education and the Calgary Catholic School District.  

Mount View School is collecting only in the month of October! 

Leave your donations in the bin just inside the main doors of the school. Thank you so much.
