Student-led Conferences
We are looking forward to welcoming families to our upcoming student-led conferences at Terrace Road School. Conferences will take place this Thursday from 4:00–8:00 pm, and again on March 13 until 4:00 pm.
Sign-up is now open through the MyCBE/PowerSchool portal, and we encourage families to book their preferred time as soon as possible.
Student-led conferences are an important opportunity for students to take an active role in sharing their learning. During these conferences, students guide their families through their work, reflect on their progress, and talk about their goals for the remainder of the year. This process helps build confidence, ownership, and a deeper understanding of their learning journey.
We look forward to seeing you and celebrating the growth and achievements of our students together.
Book Fair
The Scholastic Book Fair is coming to Terrace Road School from March 9–12, with classes visiting in the mornings to explore exciting new books and reading treasures. Families are invited to shop together on March 13 from 1–5 pm during Student-led Conferences — a perfect opportunity to build home libraries while supporting our school. We are also seeking volunteers to help make this event a success. If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact Jackie Bouchard at jabouchard@cbe.ab.ca.
Community Drum Circle
Dear Terrace Road Families,
The Terrace Road School Council is pleased to invite parents and caregivers to a special Community Drum Circle evening at the school.
This engaging workshop will be facilitated by Circles of Rhythm, an organization that specializes in creating inclusive, interactive rhythm experiences for communities and schools. The event is designed as an opportunity for parents to unwind, connect with one another, and experience the power of rhythm together.
Event Details
- Date: Thursday March 12, 2026
- Doors Open: 6:00 PM – Parents are welcome to gather in the Learning Commons to visit and relax while the Circles of Rhythm team prepares the instruments in the gym.
- Drum Circle Begins: 6:30 PM
- Duration: Approximately 75 minutes
The intent of this circle is to provide a space to slow down, set aside the distractions of the day, discover and tune into your own inner rhythm, and enjoy the sense of connection that can be created through simple rhythms and the shared experience of drumming together.
No musical experience is necessary—just come ready to participate and have fun.

We hope you can join us for this unique and energizing community event.
Our School Development Plan in Action
Last week, our Grade 5/6 learning community engaged in a creative and thought-provoking activity connected to our School Development Plan goal of strengthening student writing. The teachers temporarily rearranged the classroom and removed some of the students’ most preferred spaces, including the classroom library and the cozy lounge area. This change served as a “provocation” designed to spark authentic student voice and purposeful writing. Students were challenged to craft persuasive pieces explaining why these valued classroom features should be reinstated. It was wonderful to see students writing with such passion and clarity as they developed strong arguments, supported their opinions with reasons, and considered their audience. Experiences like this help students understand that writing can be a powerful tool for communicating ideas and influencing change.
