Today’s the day! Officially passing the torch to Mme Aultman! I will miss this amazing community - thank you for having me as your principal. It has been a joy and an honour! #essmy #gsacrd #leopardlife #douvillianforlife

May you celebrate the wonder and mystery of the incarnation - God made flesh in the Person of Christ - this Christmas! Merry Christmas from all of us at Greater St. Albert Catholic Schools!

Christmas blessings to all our ESSMY families! #essmy #gsacrd #leopardlife #joyeuxnoel

On this fourth and final week of Advent, we focus on our Holy Mother’s open heart, as she prepares to receive the gift of Immanuel, God with Us. May we follow h...er example and prepare our hearts to celebrate the nativity of Our Lord. Knowing that God is with us brings us peace and comfort, even in these challenging times.

Joyeux Noël! #essmy #gsacrd #leopardlife

Greater St. Albert Catholic Schools has a new theme song for its three-year (2020-2022) faith theme - "Arise, Get Going, and Go With God!" (Luke 7:14). The song... was written and produced by our very own Superintendent of Schools. You can download the song (entitled "Arise!") and the lyrics from our website, as well as the backstory for how this song was created. "Arise!" also features Trustee Serena Shaw on harmony and background vocals. In December or January, we will share a video, set to this song, that will feature photos, videos, and art that demonstrate how students and staff are animating and living out our faith theme.

And first place goes to Georgia and Caitlyn for their Bavarian Ginger Haus! Straight from the Black Forest, this creation boasts intricate details and creativity! Love the lake - it’s a nice touch! #essmy #gsacrd #leopardlife

Last day of school for 2020! Put your feet up and relax!! #essmy #gsacrd #leopardlife #likeaboss

Today, we join thousands of others across our province in celebrating #CatholicEducationSunday. The theme for 2020 "Those who hope in the Lord will renew the...ir strength" (Isaiah 40:31) is particularly relevant during this pandemic. Catholic schools provide stability, moving us forward even in times of hardship and uncertainty. This is because we know that our hope is in God, Who is forever faithful, Who never leaves us, and Who always holds us in His loving Arms. Today, let us thank God for the gift of #CatholicEducation.
