We had a special visit from a special @calgarypolice dog Callie today. She was so calm & gentle and it looked like she enjoyed meeting so many of our students & staff… Our students & staff sure loved meeting her!
Our trees started small & weak, but stand strong & tall today!
Advice from a Tree 🌳
Stand tall and proud
Sink your roots into the Earth
Be content with your natural beauty
Go out on a limb
Drink plenty of water
Think long term
Enjoy the view!
Welcome to the 2021-22 school year! We are excited and ready to welcome all our students to Jack James as they walk though our doors! We are looking forward to a year full of opportunities & experiences that will enrich & support our community.

It’s always great to hear from recent graduates - Thanks to JJ I was able to learn construction & it became a passion for me. I am now framing houses for @morrison_homes & get to learn even more. I wouldn't have been doing Construction if it weren't for JJ & Mr C! #yycbedu
A huge shoutout to @CGYFireFighters for making a very special graduation day on June 29 even more special for our student Zoey! She was so filled with joy to be celebrated & escorted to grad by you. #wearecbe#yycbedu
