Principal's Message

Welcome Svend Hansen School students, families and champions of our youngsters.


I hope this message finds you all well. Summer always goes by fast and my wish for all of us is that
we have had quality time together with our loved ones. My summer was wonderful and the weather
cooperated nicely to spend many hours outside.


The 2024-25 school year will see the Svend Hansen School Plan continue to be the foundation of
our work in the school community. The plan was co-created throughout the 2022-23 school year and
aligns with the Vision Mission Values Division Priorities of Edmonton Public Schools. Parents and
families are partners in education as we work together to ensure our children receive the best
possible public education experience.


Of note is the Province of Alberta’s directive to all school divisions to implement guidelines and
expectations that align with the province’s standards for limiting use of personal mobile devices in
classrooms. A letter has also been posted on Schoolzone explaining the processes.


Please take the time to read the information and contact the school if you need any clarity
(587-489-4724). Please make sure you read and access all the information being posted on
Schoolzone and check back frequently. Our team will be working hard to share important information
daily.


Looking forward to the school year ahead as we together support your children.


~ Christina Jones, BPE, BEd, MEd


Principal, Svend Hansen School
