*Note: Kanaka Creek Elementary remains in session until end of day, March 31. Please watch your speed in this school zone.

Due to extreme weather, school will be closed Monday, June 28.

Dear Kanaka Creek families,

Due to the dangerous long-duration heat wave that will last through Monday, I have made the difficult decision to close Kanaka Creek Elementary for Monday, June 28.

While the school facility itself is equipped with air conditioning, many Kanaka Creek students walk to school – some from considerable distances. At this time, the forecast for tomorrow is for 44C at dismissal. I sincerely apologize for the added inconvenience this may pose during an already challenging time. Please know that this decision was made with the health and safety of our students top of mind.

We will continue to monitor the situation for Tuesday. Updates will be sent to you directly through the parent portal, and will also be posted to the school district website and social media accounts (Twitter: ; Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MapleRidgePittMeadowsSchoolSD42)

Sincerely,
Harry Dhillon
Superintendent of Schools
