May 22, 2024, update on Eric Langton Elementary replacement project

Dear Environmental School families,

I am writing to provide you with an update on the Eric Langton Elementary replacement project.

We have been advised that site preparations will begin this upcoming Friday, May 24, 2024. As a part of this work, fencing will be erected to enclose and restrict access to the construction site. Our site map provides detailed information about the location of the school construction zone, as well as new and existing access points. Below, I have highlighted some essential information for your convenience.

Main Access Points During Construction

  • Environmental School (ES) at James Best Centre: ES families will be able to access the centre from 227th Street or any of the three other access points (Edge Street and 122nd Avenue).
  • Eric Langton Elementary School: Main access will be from Edge Street.
  • Pedestrian Access: Pedestrian access from our school to 122nd Avenue will be maintained.
  • Construction Site: Construction vehicles will access the site from 227th Street.

Pick-up/Drop-off

Pick-up and drop-off at the site will not be impacted at this time, although there may be an increase in traffic at varying times.

Questions/Concerns

We are committed to keeping you informed with regular updates and will actively seek your feedback to address any concerns promptly.

  • Questions related to your child: Questions related to your child should continue to be directed to the school (your child’s teacher or myself, as appropriate).
  • Construction site related questions or concerns: Please do not approach the construction crew with questions. You can submit your question(s) and/or report concerns to us at ELEConstruction@sd42.ca, or anonymously at https://bit.ly/3WFmRoC.
  • We will review and respond to your emailed inquiries within two business days. If your concern is time-sensitive, please provide specific details, and we will address it as promptly as possible.

 

Updates

I will continue to share updates with you through the Parent Portal as they become available. These updates will also be posted to our school website at https://es.sd42.ca/, and to the district website at https://bit.ly/4aafU1O.

Sincerely,

Nicole Mckenzie
Principal
