If you would like to be notified by email of any school closings or other important announcements, enter your email address below and click "Notify Me". If you are already on our notification list and would like to be removed from it, enter your email address and click "Stop Notifying Me".
Parents/Guardians do not need to sign up for Notify Me. We will share information through our PowerSchool messaging system, which uses the contact information you provide to the school. If your contact information changes at any time during the school year, please let your school office know.
Parents/Guardians will receive messages from the school and occasionally from AVRCE (including school cancellation notices) unless contact preferences are changed using the PowerSchool Parent Portal, or by speaking with your school office staff to let them know your contact preferences.
Our PowerSchool messaging system was updated during summer 2018, which reset all parent/guardian contact preferences. This reset means you will receive messages by email, text and phone if you have contact information on file with your school.
Parents/Guardians can choose to receive messages only by certain methods (for example, by text but not by phone or email.) or to receive no messages. To update your PowerSchool contact preferences, speak to your school office or use the PowerSchool Parent Portal.
Notify Me will continue to be available to school community members (such as grandparents, childcare providers) who wish to receive school cancellation notices by text or email. Notify Me has not been reset; if you have subscribed in the past, your contact information remains in this system.
All AVRCE email and text announcements are sent from webmaster@avrce.ca. Email subscribers, please add this address to your trusted senders to ensure you receive announcements.
Text subscribers, please note text messaging fees may apply when receiving AVRCE announcements, depending on your mobile service plan or provider.
