Seemed i was right to feel concerned…read more Not saying who my source is but here is a - direct quote their words not mine "Miss Kristine or whatever her name is seems more interested in hanging with the parents then the kids" Makes you as a parent concerned; Why so interested only talking to my kid (but could never be cordial with the parent) especially when had her own students to worry about? That makes one worrysome. Your feelings as a concerned parent should never get threatened, and then get verbally abrused for having concerns especially at a school.

My oldest son has been taking classes here for the past 2 years and it has been an great experience…read morefor him. The staff are fantastic and are wonderful with children. The class structure is easy for kids to understand and really helps them build confidence and motor skills. I can't say enough for this program. It's so beneficial for young kids and the enjoyment you see from the staff and the kids is proof enough that this place rocks. Just some notes for new parents who enrol their kids: 1. If you are going to watch your child, be courteous to pregnant women and give up your chair so they can sit. The viewing space is small so if you are going to spend all your time on your phone and not watching, leave the area to those who want to watch their kids. 2. Take off your shoes when you go into the viewing area. 3. Leave your stroller in the hallway or outside the main doors. 4. If you have to accompany your child in a class, be respectful of the instructor and the other adults with kids. Don't let your child wander around the place while the instructor is trying to demonstrate the next station to the kids. 5. Have as much fun as your child.

We love the playground/park at Albert Lacombe School…read more It's easily one of the best in St. Albert with easy access to the city trails connecting Albert Lacombe to Sir George Simpson, the outdoor Grosvenor Pool, and even all the way down to the Sturgeon River and St. Albert Place (think best farmer's market ever!). The only downside is that the playground is on sand a little below ground level so it can be a bit of a swamp when snow melts in the Spring or if there is a big rain storm. But otherwise you've got soccer fields, baseball field, basketball hoops, swings, and a large play structure to keep the kiddos busy for hours! We love to bring a picnic and a blanket (well, Mom does anyway - ahhh, reading a book in the sunshine while the kids play).

We switched schools 2 years ago and did not know what to expect…read more We have 2 children enrolled and are very, very happy with the move. It was nerve wracking not knowing what it would be like. The teachers the kids have had are amazing and go above and beyond. The VP and Principal have been very transparent and honest when asking questions. I am very impressed at how well the faculty work together. You can tell that the teachers are happy, it really comes across in the communication to parents and the activities they put on to involve the parents with their children. I especially enjoyed Family Math Night. I now participate in the parent council and help out where I can (I work FT so don't have a lot of time). I am very happy with the Leader In Me practice they have adopted and love that the kids are encouraged to start and participate in their own clubs. Now having 2 years in this school, I can confidentially say this school faculty and staff are amazing. We are very happy here.

This school has gone down hill in the last 3 years in terms of discipline. They have gone…read more"Militant" as one parent put it. Kids can not be kids in this school. They do not focus on the positive just on the negative and the main focus of the school is to send kids to the office for every little thing from standing up at lunch hour to talking, to rolling your eyes, to doing absolutely nothing wrong. Their main focus in this school is not to nuture your self esteem, it is not to bring the best out in our children, and it is not to come up with positive solutions. They hire people (parents-who have absolutely no training) to help out with our children during recess and lunch hours and these people have absolutely no training when it comes to chilren's behaviours. These same people also lack patience. This school likes to think that they are doing but they are not. The prinicpal is very hard to work with, she can not understand things from the child's point of view. I have actually heard her yell at a child when he was trying to explain his situation. She thinks she is right and no one can change her mind. Parents can not deal with her either-many have said she is impossible-this school does not have a positive atmosphere-they focus on the negative and discipline-do not send your child here. i have pulled my girls out because of this-the kids in this school are hating school, the teachers are negative and they do not work well with the child. There are a few individual teachers that really do enjoy working with children but the ones that have been there for a very long time-it is time they move on a now they have absolutely no patience. The music teacher did not even teach music???? the majority of the kids spends time in the "think tank" as all the kids know the detention room-the principal does not say the kids do not get punished.....but yet they get kicked out for the dumbest things-they have a Zero tollerance policy for any "misbehaviour" but this school deserves a Zero for the way they treat our children. If you are considering this school-please talk to as many parent s as you can-Ms. Busby will smile and make it look like a great school-but the minute you need to actually talk to her-she will not budge and she is a very rude woman and very difficult to work with. As a principal it would be nice to have someone to work with and who is willing to work with your child when situations arise. DO NOT PUT YOUR CHILD IN THIS SCHOOL UNLESS IT REALLY IS YOUR LAST RESORT!!!!!!!!!

In between classes the hallways are so crowded you can not get through them and will then be marked late for class. Luckily in this school I personally have only seen drugs (asides from caffeine) used in a school bathroom once.

The school even has great volunteer-run extras like the Skipping Club and the always excellent Strategic Gaming Club. The Academic Challenge programs leads to Steele Heights Jr. High and M.E.

If you are looking for a school in the Londonderry/McLeod area it is well worth a look.
