At Namao School, we are committed to fostering safe, supportive, and inclusive learning environments for all students.
One of the key tools we use to achieve this is the Therapeutic Crisis Intervention for Schools (TCIS) system. TCIS is a trauma-informed, division-wide framework designed to help staff prevent crises, de-escalate potential conflicts, and support students in developing healthy emotional regulation and coping skills.
This system not only enhances safety and well-being but also promotes stronger relationships between students, staff, and families.
Sturgeon Public Schools is proud to be the first school division in Alberta to partner with Unplugged Canada, a parent-led movement encouraging families to delay giving children personal smartphones until at least age 14. Research shows that waiting can positively impact children’s mental health, relationships, and overall well-being. While technology is an important part of learning in our classrooms, personal smartphone and social media use present different challenges. By sharing the Unplugged Canada Pledge, we hope to support open conversations at home and connect families with the resources they need to make the best choices for their children. Participation is completely voluntary—learn more and sign the pledge here.
Happy in the Hammocks: Outdoor Learning at its Best!
Grade 2 Oilers Reporters in Action!
.
Our students in 2B have taken their love for the Edmonton Oilers to the next level! After every game, they prepare and deliver an official Oilers game report — and today, they read it live over the morning announcements!
.
From game highlights to player shout-outs, these young sports journalists bring big energy and even bigger enthusiasm to our mornings. Go Oilers, go!
Thank you to the Ben Stelter Foundation for inviting our amazing school leaders, Mae and Autumn and team (including some lucky staff memebrs!) down to Ottewell School to participate in the Connor McDavid meet and greet!

Students must store their devices in their lockers for the entire school day. This includes both breaks
Students must have a lock on their locker to ensure their device is safe.
Per the Technology Use Agreement, the school is not responsible for the loss of personal items.
If your device is not stored in your locker during school hours, including break periods, a parent or guardian must retrieve it from the school office. This is necessary to ensure a safe and focused learning environment for all students.
Please refer to the map for which door your student will be entering through.
There are boot rooms at each entrance for your students to put their outdoor shoes away.
Please refrain from parking along the sidewalk in front of the school and instead utilize parking stalls if you get out of your car to pick up or drop off you student(s). The space along the sidewalk in front of the school is for quick pick-up and drop-off only
DO NOT walk in between the busses. Please use the crosswalk to get from the parking lot to the playground area and vice versa
Drivers must yield to pedestrians and busses as they depart the school to ensure their scheduled routes are not delayed
Please do not back into to the angled parking stalls as you will then be facing the wrong way to exit
Staff supervision of the parking areas starts at 8:25am. We are asking parents to please hold their students until that time and supervise them as they cross from the parking lot to the school yard.
Thank you for helping to keep our school safe!
If your student is planning on taking a different bus home, please fill out the Transportation Permission Form found above.

Parents and Guardians - please also be advised that you must contact your student's bus driver to ensure there will be enough room for additional students to join a trip.
