Grade 7 – New Teacher

Ernest Morrow School will be welcoming a new teacher to our building.  Prabh Simran Kaur will start on Monday, November 20 and will be responsible for Humanities 7.1 and Humanities 7.2 and Art 7.  Navpreet Brar, the teacher formerly responsible for these classes, will be leaving Ernest Morrow.  We wish her all the best on her new adventure.

Yearbook 2023 - 2024

This year's yearbook theme is Ride the Wave. The yearbook students have been working diligently to create a book that will represent Ernest Morrow proudly.

We will be selling the 2023 - 2024 yearbook for $20. We will accept cash, credit, cheque, and debit. 

We will be selling the yearbook throughout the school year starting on Monday November 20 up until April 30. Purchases after this date will not be accepted. Students can purchase a yearbook from the office at any time throughout the year or from the yearbook club on the third Tuesday of every month at lunch.

Upon purchase, students will receive a receipt and be asked to sign an order form acknowledging that they have purchased a yearbook. A second signature on this form will indicate when your student receives the yearbook in June.

Did you know…..

Ernest Morrow has its own school psychologist on site; Kim Barber. All CBE psychologists apply their psychological and educational expertise to support students in achieving academic success, psychological health, and social/emotional well-being.  The main purpose is to assist the school in addressing barriers to improve student success.  Psychological services provide a continuum of supports ranging from universal to targeted interventions. Universal interventions include Informal Consultation (multidisciplinary, not specific to a student) (e.g. Area Learning Team, School Learning Team, Student Program Review, Specialized class placement) and Professional Learning. If a student is put forward by the Learning Team, targeted intervention may also take place (with parent permission ONLY). Targeted interventions include Psychological Assessment, Individual Counselling, Small Group Intervention and Formal Consultation (specific to a student) including File review and suggestions, Behaviour intervention, Diagnostic clarity, and Case management.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact the school principal or the psychologist directly at 403-777-7800.

​​​​​​​Immunizations

Alberta Health Services School Immunization Program will be at Ernest Morrow School on November 22, 2023 in the morning to immunize Grade 9 students. Children who are eligible to receive immunizations at school received an immunization consent package. Please review the information, fill out the consent forms, and return to the school as soon as possible. Vaccinations will only be given to students who have consent forms signed by a parent/guardian. Note: Consent forms that are not returned will be followed up with a phone call from the school nurse.

*Please note COVID-19 vaccinations will NOT be offered in the school. 

 Appointments in clinics will not be available as this is a public health program provided in the school setting. 

The School Immunization Program is committed to helping prepare your child with the best tools to make their experience more comfortable. We will be encouraging students to prepare for immunization day using the Distraction Techniques listed on the AHS Commitment to Comfort website. Please see attached document for further tips and resources. 

 Other ways to help your child on immunization day are:

• Eat breakfast,
• Pack healthy snacks/lunch and a water bottle,
• Have your child wear a short sleeve shirt as immunizations go in the arms,
• Use positive language to encourage your child before, on, and after immunization day.
