As we get closer to our Annual General Meeting, please be aware that we have some Executive members whose students are graduating and will be leaving their positions. If you are interested in helping to support the staff and students of OJSH through volunteer work within School Council or our fundraising committee, OPEA, please feel free to contact us at onowayhighparents@gmail.com, and we will answer any questions you may have.


 The Onoway Parents Educative Association will be volunteering on August 02 and 03, 2024, at Century Casino in St Albert. We understand that this falls on the August long weekend, but we rely heavily on this funding to help support the students at OJSH. Please consider stepping up to volunteer for a shift or two during this weekend. As soon as we have the online sign-up ready, we will be advertising and sending it out to our email distribution; if you would like to be included, please send a request to onowayhighparents@gmail.com


School Council and the Onoway Parents Educative Association would like to acknowledge the following community organizations for their monetary donations to the OJSH Breakfast Nook: Onoway Inn and Suites, Alberta Beach and District Lions Club, Alberta Beach Community League, and Alberta Beach & District Agricultural Society. With their generosity and support, we ensure that growing minds are nourished and that we continue to build webs of support within our school community. Thank you so much to these organizations.

 

 

 

 

Breakfast Nook Donations

Thanks to the generosity of many parents and staff, students who don't have breakfast or forget their lunch can now stop by the counselling area and get something to eat.

Due to covid protocols, we are not able to provide anything except packages food & drinks. We are asking for specific donations of:

  • granola bars
  • juice boxes
  • fruit cups
  • Gingerale (cans)
  • pudding cups
  • other packaged food not requiring refirgeration

If you are able to donate, please send with your child to the school, or call to have someone pick up from you outside of the front doors. We also accept cash donations so we may buy supplies when they are low.
