Dear Buchanan Families

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful week!

Over the next couple of months, our school will be focusing on resilience—what it means and how it applies to our daily lives at school.

We are also continuing to explore our school identity and what it truly means to be a Buchanan Bear. Today, our teachers and Kindergarten to Grade 2 students had the incredible opportunity to learn about identity and the significance of the bear from Blackfoot knowledge keeper, Anita Crowshoe.

We are learning and growing together, and I couldn’t be more proud of our students!

Pick-Up & Drop-Off Safety Reminder

We kindly ask all parents and guardians to use the designated crosswalk during drop-off and pick-up times. Jaywalking can be dangerous, especially with the high volume of cars, buses, and students in the area.

Keeping our school community safe is our top priority! Thank you for using the crosswalk and setting a great example for our students. We truly appreciate your support and cooperation.
