Round Dance
Each year CBE hosts a Mini Round Dance honouring our grade 9 Indigenous students and families. This year’s event will take place at Ernest Manning High School on April 30 from 5pm to 8pm. https://insite.cbe.ab.ca/teaching/student-supports/indigenous-education/Documents/Round-Dance-Poster-2025-2026.pdf?fingerprint=ppb20260605024835
Food Drive
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to every member of our community who has contributed to the WDP Food Drive in support of the Calgary Food Bank. Each day, we have seen more and more donations come in, and it has been incredible to witness the growing sense of pride and empowerment in our Leadership 8 students as they see our school community come together in such a positive way.
Monday, April 27 will be the final day of the food drive, and our Leadership students are hopeful it will be our biggest day yet! With just over 1400 items collected so far, we are working toward our goal of 2000 items.
New Student Open House
William D. Pratt is excited to invite incoming grade 5 students and new to our school students and their parents/guardians to join us for an Open House on Thursday, May 7, 2026 from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm. This opportunity is for new students joining our school for the 2026-27 school year.
