If you have not yet been informed about this, the CBE sent out a very important message regarding exams next week.
Due to the devastating flood that enveloped southern Alberta last Thursday, the Calgary Board of Education, along with the CCSD, and Alberta Educations had worked together and came to the conclusion that for the safety of students and staff, all non-diploma exams this week (June 24/2013) have been cancelled and remaining diploma exams are now optional. The board is allowing full exemption from remaining exams next week, and the students who choose not to partake in the now optional diplomas will have their teacher-awarded mark as their final grade. All CBE schools will be closed on Monday June 24 except for those wishing to take their diplomas.
Students from flood-affected schools who choose to write their diplomas will write them in the designated school given here. Please visit this link to find out further information regarding this change.
