Foothills School Division Community Engagement

Submit your ideas for the upcoming budget

Ideas That Make Cents Public Consultation

In a continuing effort to promote that Foothills School Division is a place for all, we are seeking insight into the people within our community. One way we are accomplishing this is by building a calendar of celebrations and days of significance that best represent you, our community. Canada is a cultural mosaic. By building a calendar that reflects each member of our community, we can grow our understanding of each other, celebrate our diversity, and create a sense of belonging. There are many holy days associated with various faiths and the absence of such dates on this list should not be interpreted to mean they are not significant or valued. This list is not meant to be comprehensive or exhaustive and every attempt has been made to ensure its accuracy. This is a fluid calendar and updates and changes are made throughout the year.  View Celebrations for All CalendarWe also welcome your suggestions in our guestbook below or to communications@fsd38.ab.ca. Please be sure to include the date(s), a description of the event, and links to learn more.Thank you for your participation.

Foothills School Division (FSD), &Eacute;cole Secondaire Foothills Composite High School (FCHS), and the Town of Okotoks are inviting you to be a part of the Shared Responsibility to ensure Safety for All. As you may know, FSD is a Place for All, where each of us is expected to consistently foster a welcoming, caring, respectful, and safe environment that prioritizes respect and acceptance of diversity.We are pleased to share with you some of the highlights of our Safety for All initiative, which aims to hear your concerns and solutions to promote a culture of safety and well-being among our students, staff, and community members. Here are some of the activities we have been working on:&Eacute;cole Secondaire Foothills Composite High School | Alberta High School of Fine Arts Parking Lot<ul><li>Initial survey conducted in June 2023 to assess the safety priorities. While most respondents felt safe at the school, the top concerns were:<ol><li>Loitering and gathering of students</li><li>Traffic in the pick up lane/ idle zone</li><li>Winter road conditions</li><li>Time to exit the lot</li></ol></li></ul> <ul><li>Based on your creative solutions the following have been implemented:<ol><li>Student parking pass system effective September 2023. </li><li>Increased signage regarding designated parking areas. </li><li>Repurposing vacant space at the northwest end of the school for additional staff parking, freeing up space for student parking. </li><li>Removal of a fence adjacent to the student parking area, which allows for improved snow removal, and widening the road for traffic flow. </li><li>Installation of additional security cameras around the campus, including within the building, parking lot, and building exterior. This helps to identify those littering and participating in vandalism and unsafe activities. </li><li>Continued advocacy for a new high school in Okotoks. As reflected in our Capital Plan, the need is shared with our local MLA and Minister of Education. </li><li>Collaborating with the Town of Okotoks to determine solutions that address traffic flow along surrounding roadways. </li></ol></li></ul> Foothills School Division appreciates the time and efforts of Mr. Vikram Kulkarni, Municipal Enforcement Manager for the Town of Okotoks and his colleagues who are equally committed to the shared responsibility of safety for all within our community. Please join us as we continue to promote a culture of safety. Here&rsquo;s how you can get involved:<ul><li>Participate in upcoming surveys.</li><li>Report unsafe activities to municipal enforcement or school leadership.</li><li>Promote the shared responsibility of safety by abiding laws, regulations, and posted signage.</li><li>Celebrate positive actions within your community.</li></ul>
