Dear FEO Eagle Families,
I am pleased to inform you that F.E. Osborne has been allocated two additional teaching positions for the 2026–27 school year through the Government of Alberta’s Class Size Reduction Grant.
This grant funds teaching positions that support improved learning conditions in kindergarten to Grade 9 classrooms.
This funding is specifically intended to help reduce class sizes in core subject areas (English Language Arts/French Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies), with priority given to schools experiencing the greatest class size pressures.
This decision was made using system-wide data that considers:
- The number of classes exceeding provincial class size benchmarks
- Projected enrolment and class organization
- School programming and grade configuration
Our goal is to ensure students benefit from:
- Increased teacher attention
- Improved classroom learning environments
- Greater support for diverse learning needs
We remain committed to supporting strong learning environments for all students and using our resources thoughtfully and strategically.
As noted in a previous update, FEO remains on the Calgary Board of Educations SSAP. Consideration is being given to potentially adjusting the Regular program. The CBE will continue to provide updates on the SSAP website.
This past week I had, along with many other teachers, the oppurtunity to attend the FEO School Council Grade 9 Farewell at Heritage Park. It was an absolutely incredible time for students to celebrate their learning journing thus far and look forward to their next steps as they continue to work towards graduation. A huge thank you to our incredible FEO School Council for organzing such a meaningful event. Congratulations Grade 9 students, we all wish you well in Grade 10!
The FEO Spring Concert was also held this past week. Ms. Therrien and Mr. Cavalleri have worked incredbly hard with these young musicians. Their care and experience was evident with the growth these young musicians demonstrated. Congratulations to all the musicians on a wonderful performance!
As we enter another week of Provincial Achievement Tests (PATs), I would like to highlight that meaningful learning continues throughout the month of June, even after PATs are completed. While some students may express a desire to leave school after finishing their exams, this remains a family decision. Please note that regular classes will continue, and our office is not able to process student requests for early dismissal following PATs.
Thank you for your continued support of the outstanding FEO learning community.
Warm regards,
Dr. Michael Cutler
Principal | F.E. Osborne

CELEBRATING SAFE AND CARING SCHOOL COMMUNITIES
As a school, we are committed to ensuring our schools are safe and caring places for every student and staff member. As a public school system, we welcome every learner and value the diverse backgrounds, perspectives and lived experiences that make up our school communities.
As a system, we recognize many important dates in June, including the beginning of Pride Season, and many others as outlined on our dates of significance calendar. We affirm the importance of ensuring 2SLGBTQ+ students and staff have learning and work environments that are welcoming, caring, respectful and safe.
Our schools work intentionally to promote belonging by preventing discrimination and recognizing and removing barriers to participation and learning. At the heart of this work is creating learning environments where our students and staff feel respected, supported and able to be themselves.
When students feel safe and valued for who they are, they are better able to learn, grow, and thrive. Building school communities where everyone feels a sense of connection and belonging is shared work. We are grateful to the families, students and staff whose partnership helps our communities flourish.
CLEAN UP BEFORE YOU GO! | CBE Students Move or Delete Files Before Departure
The CBE is reminding all students to save their files they wish to keep on a personal drive prior to June 26, 2026. It is especially important for students who are graduating or leaving the CBE to move all files over to personal storage because they will lose access to their CBE account after August 31, 2026, and their CBE email address and inbox will be deleted permanently.
Anyone who has applied to a post-secondary institution or scholarship with their CBE email address is encouraged to update their email contact information with the organization to which they have applied.
