Parents and Students

Edmonton Catholic School District parents are an integral part of our school community. Edmonton Catholic School staff, in partnership with parents, are committed to the education of our students. Parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in all areas of their child's education, as they are their child's first and most important teachers.

READ IN Week

The purpose of READ IN 2010 is to create a greater awareness of the importance of reading. Historically, the event has successfully promoted the school as an important place for the development of lifelong literacy.

The goal of READ IN Week is to involve as many individuals as possible in one or more READ IN events during the week of October 4 – 8, 2010. A READ IN event can take place anywhere — in the school’s READ IN centre, in the community or at home. A READ IN event is any occasion when participants make a deliberate choice to read or to be read to for pleasure. Read More...
