The Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) and the Government of Alberta have announced they will resume bargaining on October 14th.

Please note that the strike remains in effect, and all Grasslands schools are temporarily closed until further notice. There will be no in-person or online classes, and no supervision or extracurricular activities at this time.

We remain hopeful that both parties will soon reach an agreement.
