Parent Communication

The R.T. Alderman School Blog has the purpose of communicating messages, notices, newsletters and information updates. The blog lets parents access information about the school. Consider subscribing to the RSS Feed for this blog to ensure you are staying up-to-date. -- Our new blog has a feature that enables us to notify you of changes and posts to the blog automatically via e-mail so you can stay on top of updates and notices without needing to check in regularly. If you wish to be excluded from the auto notification list, please contact the school office.

Parent Volunteers

We need your help! If you have previously completed and been approved through the CBE’s Volunteer Registration process and would like to assist at our school, we would love to hear from you! You can help speed up the volunteering process by bringing copies of your clearance information into the school’s main office at your convenience. In most cases, once clearance has been received from the Calgary Police Service, it is good for 5 years, even with a change of schools.Thank you!
