Staff Update

 (Email sent to all parents on Feb 29, 2024 ) 

Dear Parents and Guardians, 

I am writing to inform you of a temporary change in our administrative team at Branton School. Our Assistant Principal, Mr. Paul Ormiston, has informed me that he is taking a leave of absence starting on February 26, 2024 and continuing until later in April 2024. While Mr. Ormiston is on leave, I am pleased to announce that Mr. Judd Casper will be serving as the Acting Assistant Principal at Branton School. Mr. Kevin Kaya will be replacing Mr. Casper during this time for the duration of this leave. 

Mr. Casper is a dedicated member of our staff with a wealth of experience and knowledge in education. He has been a valued member of our school community for many years, contributing to the success and growth of our students. His commitment to academic excellence and student well-being is evident in all aspects of his work. As Acting Assistant Principal, Mr. Casper will be assuming the responsibilities typically carried out by Mr.

Ormiston. He will work closely with me and the rest of the administrative team to ensure the continued smooth operation of our school and to provide support to our students, staff, and families. 

While we will miss Mr. Ormiston during his leave of absence, we are confident that Mr. Casper will excel in his new role and continue to uphold the high standards of leadership and care that we have come to expect at Branton School. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this temporary change in our administrative team, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at sepicard@cbe.ab.ca. 

Thank you for your continued support and understanding. Sincerely,

Sebastien Picard - Principal

School Planning Survey

We would like parents input as we start to plan the 2024-25 school year. 

The purpose of this survey is to gather feedback from families on school planning, which includes the school development plan, school budget, and school fees. When students, staff and families work closely together, students experience greater success.
