Demographic Verification 2024-25
Phone number changed recently? Need to add a caregiver? Have a different email? Keep us up to date so we can keep you up to date. For any changes or to verify your child’s demographic and contact information, please go to your parent account at MyCBE/PowerSchool. Log in and go to MyCBE (left margin). Click on the tile that says “SchoolEngage”. Then go to “Notifications”, then “Outstanding Forms.”
There is an additional form available called “Citizenship Information Update” to be used if your child’s citizenship info changes.
For technical assistance, please call the parent account help line at 403-817-6373.
Annual Authorization 2024-25
Each year we ask parents to review the Consent for CBE Use of Student Information and the Consent for CBE Use of Student Information by News Media and Outside Groups (Third Party) forms. You can access them and give or deny consent through MyCBE/PowerSchool.
Medical Forms
If your child has medical issues or needs to take medication at school, please complete the forms below and return them to school. Medical forms MUST be updated and submitted every school year.
Student Health Emergency Response Protocol Form
Dogs on school grounds
A reminder to our school community that according to City of Calgary Bylaw on Responsible Pet Ownership dogs are not permitted on school grounds in the City of Calgary or around playgrounds.
Volunteer at school
To volunteer at school, you must have a current police clearance. If you have previously volunteered at CMS, your police clearance is valid for 5 years.
Please follow the steps below to become a school volunteer:
· Log in to MyCBE, then SchoolEngage.
· Fill out the "Volunteer Registration 2024-25" form.
· Make sure your photo ID is clear and readable and is in the form of a selfie.
· The school will provide you with an ePIC letter for the Police Information Check.
· Go online to the Calgary Police Service's Police Information Check webpage and submit the required information.
· When you receive the results from the Police Information Check, upload the results through SchoolEngage.
· Please inform the school when you have uploaded your results.
Parking at Canyon Meadows
Please be considerate of our neighbours in Canyon Meadows. Do not block driveways, entrances, or alleyways.
Central Fees (bussing, student supplies and lunch supervision)
Central Fees are not yet available to pay. When the fees are available, you can pay them through MyCBE. If you have not yet created MyCBE (parent portal account), please log in to the CBE website and register.
School Based Fees (field trips and residencies e.g. Latin Dance Residency)
Field trip and residency fees will be loaded in to our fee management system throughout the year. When the field trip or residency fee is available to pay, you will be advised. Just by way of explanation, a residency is when a teacher or instructor (not a staff member) comes to the school and teaches a specific subject (e.g. latin dance) for a set period of time (usually 2 to 3 weeks).
End of the day Dismissal
Parents/guardians, you may pick up your child(ren) near their designated doors. Please ensure to allow room for teachers to dismiss students safely.
Just a reminder, the school does not provide after school supervision; please be on time.
