Programming
French Immersion: All French Immersion students will continue to attend school in Lacombe. Busing will be provided.
Enrolment at ÉSLCHS:
- In the process of contacting ÉSLCHS grade ten and eleven parents (approximately 239 students) via email and phone calls to ensure parents have a clear understanding of the enrollment process. If you haven’t heard from me by december, reach out to ed.coles@wolfcreek.ab.ca
- These discussions will allow for a preliminary understanding of student numbers and interest in option programming.
Enrolment-LOS:
- Currently, close to 100 Blackfalds students attend Lacombe Outreach School.
- IRSC has been designed to house an Alternative Learning Program that will accommodate students who will not remain as LOS students.
- Separate entrance to the school.
