Welcome Back (well... sort of) and Happy New Year!
We hope that everyone had a wonderful break.  It looks like we will see everyone back on January 10th.  There will be no school for students next week.
Happy Orthodox Christmas to those families celebrating this holiday on January 7th!
New COVID Protocols in place now for Staff, Visitors and Volunteers in RVS Schools

As of January 3rd, new COVID protocols are in place to align with the new Administrative Procedure 173 - COVID 19 Hazard Reduction.  Some key areas from the procedure include:
  • The administrative procedure requires individuals 18 years or older who are NOT students in RVS to EITHER show proof of being fully immunized OR provide a recent negative COVID-19 rapid test result. A person is considered fully immunized after 14 days have passed since they received the second dose in a two-dose COVID-19 vaccine series.
  • Proof of COVID-19 immunization or a negative rapid test result is NOT required for individuals who are in the school/facility office briefly to drop off/pick up items or drop off/pick up children.
  • Proof of immunization will be demonstrated via the Government of Alberta’s QR code (available via https://covidrecords.alberta.ca), along with your ID.
  • Proof of negative COVID-19 test will need to be recorded in a written or printed copy that clearly outlines the type of test, the date and time of sample collection, a clear indication of a negative result and the laboratory that completed the test. Proof of rapid testing remains valid for 72 hours from the time and date of the test.
  • Visitors 18 years old or older who are not an RVS student attending sporting events, school concerts or school events on RVS property will need to demonstrate proof of immunization or proof of a negative COVID-19 rapid test.
  • This administrative procedure is temporary and will be re-evaluated when the government and medical authorities no longer support the identification of COVID-19 as a workplace hazard and/or a minimum of every six months, or as deemed necessary.
A copy of the full administrative procedure can be found at this link or on the RVS website.  
Thank you for your understanding.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to the office.
Did you travel internationally over the break?
As winter break approaches and travel plans are being made, we wanted to ensure families are aware of current federal requirements for travel. For families who travelled outside of Canada, over the break, please be aware that under federal travel requirements unvaccinated children under 12 (including those who have had their first of two vaccine doses) are not to return to school for 14 days once they return to Canada. Please see the full requirements outlined by the Government of Canada https://www.rockyview.ab.ca/school_2021/travelling-and-return-to-school
