Grade 1

My name is Mrs. Watton and I am thrilled to have your child in my Grade One class this year.  It is going to be a fun year filled with lots of new adventures and I can’t wait to see what the year has in store for us. We’ll be reviewing a lot, learning even more, and of course having plenty of fun along the way!

 

I am originally from Innisfil Ontario but also spent several years in Nova Scotia where I attended St. Francis Xavier University. My husband and I moved to Fort McMurray twelve years ago and have made it our home. We have the most adorably crazy little boy named Aiden, who just turned 2 this summer. I can often be found outdoors walking our dog Rollo, biking, hiking, and camping, and I also enjoy baking, gardening, and getting lost in a good book.

Division Notice

ATA Strike Commencing on Monday; School Closures Starting Oct 6th

As a result of the Alberta Teachers Association (ATA) rejecting a proposed deal from the Teachers’ Employer Bargaining Association (TEBA), all FMPSD schools will be closed to students starting Monday, October 6, 2025, unless a new agreement is reached or strike action is otherwise averted. Additionally, all yellow school bus routes will be suspended for the duration of the strike.

In light of the ongoing strike, all extracurricular activities, including sports, clubs, and after-school programs, will be temporarily suspended.

As there is no definitive end date for the strike, FMPSD is unable to provide a timeline for when normal operations will resume. We will continue to provide timely updates as we receive them from the Ministry of Education and Child Care.
