Dear Families,

Your colleagues (Our Homeschool Families are our Partners in Teaching and Learning!) at CBE Home Education want to wish you a Wonderful World Teachers' Day on October 5. Your passion, time and commitment to creating vibrant and incredible learning opportunities for your children and families is to be celebrated. Thank you for all you do to inspire us and for your support of CBE Home Education and Bel-Aire School. We are Partners in Teaching and Learning!  

Coming Up in October for Homeschoolers:

1. CBE Labour Action Updates

Schools have been directed that communication regarding the Labour Negotiations with Alberta Education will come from one source. If you do have questions, please see your emails from The Calgary Board of Education that will be ongoing and check the Main CBE Website for updates - CBE Labour Action

Please note that starting Monday, October 6, classes will not be in session at Bel-Aire School and in-school activities like picture days, and offsite activities will be rescheduled. 

2. Homeschoolers Terry Fox Run

If you are interested in joining a parent-led (Non-CBE) Terry Fox Run with other homeschool families on Friday, October 17, please send an email to Laura Jesperson at homeschoolterryfox@gmail.com. Details about time and location and fundraising will be emailed to families who express interest.

3. Jacket Racket 

There will be a jacket drive for families in need, so if you have a jacket that you'd like to donate, more information will be coming.  November 25 is the pick-up date.
