Hello Brentwood Families:

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year!

I hope you have enjoyed a wonderful summer and that your child is looking forward to the upcoming school year.  Our staff is excited to greet both new and familiar faces.

Your child will be safe, cared for, welcomed, and valued at Brentwood School.  Our teaching practice remains focused on excellence in achievement, equity, and well-being, within the TLC setting.

This is the first of a number of messages you will receive regarding the upcoming school year.

Please note the following important information:

  • Our office re-opens tomorrow (Friday, August 23).  Our secretaries will be available by telephone from 9 am to 3 pm should you require assistance before school begins.
  • The first day of school is Thursday, August 29 from 9:08 am to 3:50 pm. These are our regular Monday to Friday hours.  Please note that Fridays are an early dismissal day with all students finishing at 1:20 pm.
  • Formal uniforms should be worn on the first day of school.  
  • If your child is joining us for Kindergarten, please see the attached letter, which was previously sent in June, for information regarding the staggered entry.
  • You will receive an introductory email from your child(ren)’s teacher on Tuesday, August 27.  It will provide further details about the start of the school year, including where to meet your child’s teacher on the first days of classes.
  • During the first two weeks of school, our entire staff will be present to greet students outside in the morning, and to ensure all students return home safely at the end of the day.  Rest assured we have well-established routines to supervise students using charter transportation (yellow buses) on arrival and departure.
  • We have many exciting learning opportunities planned for students this year, including numerous field trips, artists-in-residence, and a very special performance for families at the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium in the spring.  More details are to come.

Wishing your family all the best for the last few days of summer break.  I will continue to provide regular updates though out the school year through my ‘The Week Ahead’ messages.

Sincerely,

Rudy J. Stein
Principal
