Volunteer Guidelines Form
We are grateful for the contributions of our volunteers who play a vital role in our school programs. To ensure a safe and supportive environment, all volunteers must complete the annual SPS Volunteer Guidelines and Confidentiality Agreement and adhere to confidentiality standards in line with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIP)
The annual SPS Volunteer Guidelines and Confidentiality Agreement will be available for parents to complete through PowerSchool, where you normally complete permission forms. Volunteering is a privilege managed by the school Principal, who ensures that all volunteer work supports school staff efforts. We value your dedication and commitment to our students, our schools and our communities and look forward to continuing to welcome you into our schools.
Volunteers must also submit a Criminal Record Check. The Criminal Record Check is kept on site for 3 years. Volunteers can request a letter from the school to take to the RCMP station so that the Criminal Record check is free.
For further details, please find the updated Administrative Procedure 315: Volunteers and its new exhibit - SPS Volunteer Guidelines and Confidentiality Agreement on our website.
Thank you for making a difference!

School Council and Parent Fundraising Association
NEXT MEETING:
Monday, April 13th at 6:00 pm
Join in person or online
We are desperately seeking parent volunteers to help with the Parent Fundraising Association. We would love to recruit at least one parent in each grade group from Pre-K - Grade 4.
Last year, we did not have a Parent Fundraising Association, and we would like to resume operating to help with playground fundraising initiatives.
School Council Meetings are held once per month. Attending these meetings is an opportunity to hear school updates, consult with the school administration, and offer advice to the School Division.
For more information, please call the school or email:
Thank you
Thank you
Our school is grateful for the monthly monetary donation from Midstream Support Society. This generous donation helps hungry students start the school day with a nutritious breakfast, lunch or snacks.
Focused and Effective Communication
Sturgeon Public Schools believes that the quickest and most effective way to resolve a concern regarding your child is to address it at the most direct level. If you have a concern, please first talk to the classroom teacher for assistance.
Toys, Pokemon Cards and Hockey Cards
We kindly ask that students keep toys at home. We've noticed that when students bring toys to school, they can become upset if the toys get lost or misplaced. Keeping toys at home helps avoid these situations and ensures that everyone can focus on their school activities. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
