Dear families,

We wanted to update you on the six new modular units scheduled to be installed at your school this fall. These units will add 150 student spaces, allowing more students to attend high school close to home.

There has been a slight delay to the timeline we initially communicated to you this spring. We estimated that the modular installation would begin this September but will now start in October. We expect the modulars to be ready for students in February.

Measures will be taken to ensure the safety of students and community members who use the school site during construction. This includes enclosing the construction area, scheduling work to avoid disrupting learning and operating within specific hours according to municipal bylaws.

You will continue to be updated about construction this fall. As we near the end of construction, the school will follow the call-back process to offer families an opportunity to return to Nelson Mandela High School based on the priority lists. The call-back process occurs at various points in the school year when space and resources are available. 

If you have any questions about this work, you may email accommodation@cbe.ab.ca.

Thank you,
Calgary Board of Education
