Please read the following Message from the division:
Dear Sturgeon Public Schools Families,
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). Additionally, roles involving sole supervision, such as field trips or coaching, require a criminal record check and vulnerable sector verification, renewed every three years.
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.
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!

There will be an opportunity to smudge during the 2024/2025 school year. Smudging is optional, and parents are invited to join students if they would like. Only students who have consent from their parents/guardians may participate.
SPARK promotes a supportive environment for children who may exhibit unsafe behaviour at recess, guiding them toward safer play. This approach guarantees the safety of all children without depriving any child of the opportunity to play outdoors. Please click on this link to learn more about how SPARK works.
