REMINDER – School Planning Survey
If you haven’t had a chance yet, parents and guardians are encouraged to complete the School Planning Survey to provide your feedback for the 2025-26 school year. The information PowerPoint shared at the School Council meeting is posted on our website for your reference. The survey is open until Friday, March 14, 2025. Please click here to complete the survey.
Your input is important to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspectives.
Next Year’s Intentions Survey
To help us get an accurate count of students returning to Battalion Park School for 2025-26, we ask that parents complete this survey for each child in the family. Accurate enrolment data is key to ensuring we staff accordingly for the next school year. An early understanding of our enrolment numbers will be beneficial as we look at grade configurations and school organization beginning next month. We kindly ask that you complete this form no later than Monday, March 17, 2025.
