Summer is winding down and the leaves are turning that shade of yellow that signals the start of school.
Students who attend Christ the Redeemer Catholic Schools will kick off their 2025-2026 school year on tomorrow (Aug. 28).
Meanwhile, those who attend a Foothills School Division school in Okotoks will return to school after Labour Day, on Tuesday, Sept. 2.
For those going to a Foothills School Division school (FSD), there is also a Student Transition Day on Friday, Aug. 29, which will support the social-emotional wellness of their learners.
Those who are attending an FSD school this year must follow the school division's policy on mobile devices in the classroom, which limits the use of mobile devices in the classroom.
The students that returning to school and are needing transportation, don't forget to register them up for bus services, before it is too late.

With the first day of school approaching, also comes the need for school supplies.
Those going to an FSD school, school supply lists can be found here, while the school supply lists for Christ the Redeemer Catholic Schools can be found on each school's website.
