Absence Reporting
This page will be updated daily with the most current information on student and staff absences.
Students and staff may be absent for a number of reasons, including illness, and illness due to COVID-19.
Due to a technical issue with MyCBE, there is no attendance report for May 5.
Student Absences
Families are asked to report their child's absence to the school on a daily basis. The CBE runs a daily report at the end of each day. The report below reflects the percentage of the school population that has been reported absent by a legal guardian or independent student due to illness on the previous school day. CBe-learn, Chinook Learning Services, Discovering Choices and Home Education are not included in the attendance data.

School-Based Staffing
The Calgary Board of Education continues to maximize existing resources to respond to significant staffing pressures.
On May 18, we identified 1,165 jobs that required substitute teachers or casual employees.
- Teaching jobs: 598 of 725 were filled.
- Support Staff jobs: 394 of 440 were filled.
Please note: Substitute teachers and casual employees may be requested for a variety of reasons, including absences due to illness or otherwise, vacancies and extra help.
The fill figures reflect the number of substitute teachers or casual employees who accept jobs. Schools may re-allocate staff within a school if required to meet additional demands.
