In order to register your child for the lunch program, please complete the form HERE. Paper forms are available at the school office, if you prefer. You can view the monthly menu HERE. Just a quick note: once students are signed up for the meal program, they’ll receive every meal on the schedule. We aren’t able to offer opt-outs for single meals.

Parking and Dogs on School Property Protocols:

  • Please remember to adhere to our parking protocols to ensure a safe and organized drop-off and pick-up process for everyone.
  • We welcome dogs on school property but kindly request that they be kept on a leash at all times. This helps maintain a safe and respectful environment for all members of our school community.

Hello EGHE Families,

 

As a friendly reminder, the School District 48 (Sea to Sky) has policies in place to maintain a safe and healthy environment on school grounds, including specific guidelines about dogs on school property.

Under Policy 804, please keep the following in mind when bringing dogs to school sites:

  1. Leashing Requirements: All dogs on school property must be leashed, tethered, and under the control of a responsible person at all times. This helps ensure the safety of students, staff, and other community members.

  2. Clean-Up: If a dog defecates on school grounds, the person in control of the dog is required to clean up and dispose of the waste properly.

  3. Annual Review: Each school’s principal will meet with the Parent Advisory Council and staff yearly to review this policy and discuss any local guidelines that may be in place. Our current local guidelines are to maintain a safe distance from classroom lineups by keeping dogs off the asphalt in the courtyard past the yellow gate (as many children are fearful of dogs and many dogs on leash in a small area can become aggressive with one another). 

We appreciate your help in keeping our schools a safe and welcoming place for everyone (including our furry friends).
