It’s Not Goodbye, It’s See Ya Later!
As we end another school year, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to each of you. Thank you for entrusting us with your children's education and growth. Your support, encouragement, and partnership have been invaluable throughout this journey.
Together, we have navigated challenges and celebrated successes, creating a warm and nurturing community for our students. Your involvement in our school community enriches the experience for everyone, and we are deeply appreciative of your contributions.
As we look forward to a well-deserved summer break, we want to extend our best wishes to each of you. May this time be filled with joy, relaxation, and cherished moments with loved ones.
Thank you once again for a wonderful school year.
Big Thank you to Westgate School

National Indigenous People's Day
On National Indigenous People's Day, Sherwood students and staff honoured and celebrated First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples with Lorelei Higgins Parker, known by her ancestral name Blue Thunder Spirit Woman, a Métis Canadian Cultural Mediator, a Rotary Peace Fellow & Positive Peace Activator, and a Governor General's Canadian Leadership Program alumna. Thank you, Lorelei, for empowering our students!
Thank you
Thank You to Calgary Transit Peace Officers: we’ve had some special guests at our school "on the lookout for good behavior and encouraging our kids not to jaywalk." Calgary Public Transit Officers have asked us to be extra careful and avoid jaywalking when heading to the bus stops. Not only is jaywalking dangerous for us, but it also poses significant risks for bus drivers and other road users. Please encourage your child to show their Archer spirit by following this simple safety rule and using designated crosswalks. By doing so, they can help keep everyone safe and demonstrate their commitment to being responsible community members.
