Bus Rides Home with Friends – Updated Process 

In order to align with system expectations, we are required to process a student letter before your child is able to ride on another bus. In order to have time to request these letters please inform the office no later than 10:00am if your child is wanting to go on another bus.  Unfortunately, requests after 10:00am will not be able to be accommodated.  

Reminder, both families need to advise the office with student arrangements for bus changes. You may call 403-777-8300 or email Linda Melnyk – llmelnyk@cbe.ab.ca and Julie Klippenstein - jklippenstein@cbe.ab.ca


SKIP THE DEPOT - Recycling & Fundraising:

Please Start Saving your empty beverage containersclothing, and old electronics to recycle with Skip the Depot and help fundraise for our school! 

Dr. Oakley School, through the Pinnacle Parents Association (PPA) has been approved to fundraise through Skip the Depot Recycling

No lugging bags of bottles to the school or sending anything with your kids on the bus - Skip the Depot will come to your house and pick up bagged and labelled items from you on a one-time or regularly scheduled basis.   

Use this link to create an account or, if you already have an account with Skip the Depot, simply log in and search for Pinnacle Parent Association from the drop down menu to designate your recycling refunds to go towards Dr. Oakley School!   

Instructions are easy to find on the website and you will be given your own unique number to attach to your bagged bottles/clothing/electronics (please separate and do not mix beverages with clothing, etc.) and then leave them out where you have indicated they will be on the day scheduled for pick up.  It is easy-peasy and a win-win for both you and for the school. 

With appreciation, 
Pinnacle Parent Association
