Email to Parents on Dec. 6

Mask Mandate for Students

We have had many students vaccinated in the past week which is fantastic news.  Due to the change in their child’s vaccination status, some parents have enquired if students still have to wear a mask.  The answer is YES.  The K-12 mask mandate does not change with vaccination status.  All district Staff, Middle and High school students who have been vaccinated are still required to wear a mask (as per the guidelines).

Hello Auguston Community,

Thank you for all your support during a difficult time.  We feel for all of those affected by the disastrous floods that have impacted our community.  Covid-19 and keeping our community safe continues to be a focus here at our school and in the School District.

Pumpkin Patch Event

Students in Div. 10-15 went searching for a pumpkin in Auguston's "pumpkin patch". The pumpkins were used for activities in their classrooms before being taken home.

Thank you Volunteers for picking up the pumpkins & Auguston PAC for sponsoring this event for our students!

Principal's Message

I just wanted to say thank you to our entire Auguston School community for all your support in the month of September.   Students are now settled in their classes and can focus on what is most important which is building relationships with staff and their peers.  Seeing all the students playing together at recess and lunch was my highlight of the month as this brought a great deal of joy to all the students.  We soon forget that they haven’t been able to play together and/or see their group of friends outside in 18 months!

"No Uni for a Toonie" for the Year

Show your School Spirit

In an effort to streamline and reduce cash* being handled at schools we have set up our “No Uni for a Toonie” days with the option to be paid online in schoolcash. This also makes it easier for parents.

We have established a set number of these days (7 “no uni” days) which means that you would pay 7 x 2 = $14 per child one time only and be good for the year!
