RVS Student, George McDougall High School - Seven years ago, George McDougall organized their first ever Ride of the Mustang after one of our very own mustangs was diagnosed with cancer. Since then, this annual 48-hour fundraiser has raised over $765,000 for the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation, which has gained us popularity throughout the community and granted our school the Top Fundraising School award from Kids Helping Kids every year.

Kindergarten Fees to be Refunded

Under Bill 1, all school boards in the province are no longer permitted to charge instructional resource fees. As such, Rocky View Schools will be reimbursing the families that paid the $25 Kindergarten fee collected during its Advanced Registration Process in January. As the Minister has indicated, Alberta Education’s regulation on instructional fees will be released in early June; no formal invoices will be issued for 2017-18 school fees until after the policy and procedure are reviewed and approved by the Minister.
