The 2023-2024 school year calendars have been approved by the EICS Board of Trustees and are now available for viewing.

View calendars here.

Each year, the process for designing school calendars involves an in-depth examination to ensure compliance with required instructional hours and professional development days, as well as to coordinate schedules in communities where other school bus transit providers are used (Fort Saskatchewan, Vegreville, and Camrose). 

Parent councils and school staff are also consulted for their input prior to the calendars being finalized.
