New School Open House
Parents and community members are invited to an open house showcasing the design of the elementary school that will be built for the community of Mahogany.
You can drop-in anytime during the open house to view school design plans and ask the architectural consultants questions about the facility.
Date | May 29
Time | 6:30 to 8 p.m.
Location | Dr. Martha Cohen School,
116 Brightondale Park SE
We are in the early stages of the design and construction process and do not have information on the grades that will be offered, the attendance area or the walk zone. That information will be shared closer to when the school opens. There will not be a formal presentation at this open house.

Provide Feedback by June 7
If you were not able to provide feedback at the May 29 open house you can email your feedback with respect to the site design and the building design to
cbecommunications@cbe.ab.ca by June 7 for it to be considered in the planning.
Your feedback and input will be considered with respect to the planning of:
- Site access, parking and drop-off locations
- Traffic improvements
- General site configuration
- Other building design considerations
New school construction decisions that cannot be influenced:
- The new school site

- The total number of parking stalls provided for staff
- The total number of designated spots for parent drop-off and visitor parking
Alberta Education, Alberta Infrastructure and the Calgary Board of Education are working together to design and build a new school for the community of Mahogany. At the open house on May 29 we shared information on the design of the new elementary school, including general project information, timelines, site planning, traffic considerations and building design.
Alberta Infrastructure and CBE staff were at the open house to answer questions about the preliminary design and the site plan.
