WRSD has had a number of COVID cases within our schools and also students being affected from outside close contacts. This can be a worrisome thing for parents ...and families and creates many questions. Many of these questions are answered at https://www.albertahealthservices.ca/topics/Page17221.aspx. These include what steps you can take in your home, what does this mean for other family members in your household and whether a negative test means you can leave quarantine. See more

Such an impactful Remembrance Day here at Outreach today. A heartfelt service at the Centograph led by Mr John Valliere to honor those past present and future that serve for our country. Then a very personal and inside view of deployment with Ms Leanne Rafuse brother Master Corporal Rafuse currently serving in Iraq. He gave us a brief tour of his compound and students were able to ask him questions of what life as a Canadian soldier is like. Thank you for your service this Remembrance Day and every day. Stay Safe Master Corporal Rafuse
