Happy School Bus Driver Appreciation Day! 🚌
Today, we’re celebrating not only our amazing bus drivers—but the entire transportation team and our dedicated walking school bus volunteers.
From early morning routes to after-school drop-offs, you help our students arrive safely, on time, and ready to learn. Your kindness, patience, and commitment do not go unnoticed.
Thank you for everything you do to keep our students moving! 💛

Grasslands had the opportunity to share our story with fellow board members at @publicschoolsAB April meeting, highlighting what it means to govern a truly unique rur-ban school division. Proud to represent our students, staff, and communities. 💛

It’s Education Week! 📚 This week is all about celebrating the great things happening in our schools and highlighting the important role they play in our communities.
Thank you to our students, staff, and volunteers for the energy, heart, and care you bring into our classrooms each day and to our families and community partners for your continued support.
Let’s keep showing the value of public education and everything it brings to our communities!

Looking to attend a school outside your designated area? Students who do not attend their designated school require the approval of the school division. This approval is required for every school year.
If you're hoping to register your child at a Grasslands school that isn’t your designated school, you'll need to complete an Alternate School Application Form.
✅ This helps us support your request and plan for classroom space and resources.

This week, we want to recognize and thank our incredible substitute staff who step in to support our schools whenever needed. Whether in the classroom, office, or behind the scenes, their flexibility, dedication, and hard work help keep things running smoothly.
We appreciate all that you do to support our students and staff, thank you!

Our Brooks Composite High School has received design funding for the modernization of its Career and Technology Studies (CTS).
This means students will have access to updated, hands-on learning spaces that support trades, career pathways, and workplace training. These upgrades will help students gain valuable skills and experiences as they prepare for their futures. We sincerely thank the Government of Alberta for their commitment to funding this project and supporting the future of education in our region.
We look forward to seeing this project come to life and will share updates as things progress!

We’re excited to share an update on the Brooks Junior High Replacement School Project! The project has officially been awarded to Lear Construction Management Ltd., bringing us one step closer to a modern, updated school for junior high students in Brooks.
The new school will have space for 720 students, with room to expand to 820 in the future. It will include open gathering areas, updated CTS labs, and flexible learning spaces designed to support student engagement and hands-on learning.
Construction is set to be completed for the 2026-2027 school year. We’ll keep you updated as the project moves forward!
