Accessing Online Report Cards through MyCBE

Families will be able to view online student report cards on Jan. 30, 2024. Report cards for the 2023-24 school year may be viewed, downloaded and/or printed. 

Parents and Guardians can sign in to MyCBE to view student information, including report cards, comments from your child’s teacher, assignments and grades, and attendance information. For best access to information, log in to the MyCBE portal instead of using the PowerSchool App. 

Need Help? Check out these videos for more information on how to log in and navigate the portal when you have more than one child attending CBE schools.

Cold Winter Reminder

Students may go outside at lunchtime, and for PE and other learning activities. Please ensure your child has appropriate winter clothing each day (coat, boots, hat and gloves).   Our winter weather can fluctuate during the day, so we encourage students to be prepared for all weather.

 

 

Kindergarten Registration

Kindergarten registration 2024-2025 school was open online Monday, January 15th.  If a child will turn 5 before December 31, 2024 they are able to register for Kindergarten for the 2024-2025 school year.  All registrations are done online https://cbe.ab.ca/registration/registration/Pages/new-students.aspx  Please make sure you select the 2024-2025 School Year.

Some tips for registration:

  • The registration form works better on a laptop or a tablet.  Based on what we’ve noticed trying to help families with the registration, It does not work on a mobile phone.
  • Please have all documents (proof of address, birth certificate or passport, selfie picture of yourself holding an ID) ready to upload
  • Please ensure you have picked the right registration year: 2024-2025 for next year registrations
  • If your child was born outside of Canada, you must go through the Welcome Centre to register.  Please follow the link for more information: https://cbe.ab.ca/welcome/Pages/default.aspx
  • As it is not first-come, first-serve, there is no need to panic.  We just need your registration complete by noon on February 13th to have it included in the lottery.  We would recommend trying to have the forms done by February 12, or sooner so we can connect with you regarding any missing documentation.
  • Please include other children you have attending the Calgary Board of Education, and the school they attend, to the applicable section on the registration form.  Knowing if your child will have a sibling who will also be attending Hugh A Bennett next year helps us to know what priority your child is in for the lottery.
  • If your child is in Grade 4, AND you live in the designated area for Peter Lougheed school, their registration will be automatically entered in the lottery for Peter Lougheed School.

You will get an email from Hugh A Bennett School (Kindergarten-Grade 4) or Peter Lougheed School (grade 5) in mid-late February letting you know which school you child is designated to.  Please ensure your email address is up-to-date on the registration form, as we will be using it to connect families.
