Addressing Concerns

Addressing Concerns at FMPSD/Beacon Hill School

At Beacon Hill, we believe open and respectful communication builds a stronger school community. If you have a concern, we’re here to listen and support you in finding a resolution.

To help guide you through the right steps, Fort McMurray Public School Division has created a clear process for addressing concerns:

  • Start with the teacher if it’s a classroom-related issue.

  • If unresolved, speak with the school principal.

  • For broader school-wide concerns, begin by contacting the school administration directly.

  • Division or community-wide concerns can be addressed by contacting the FMPSD Division Office, where a Director will assist you.

  • If necessary, concerns can be elevated to the Superintendent’s Office.

For questions or if you’re unsure where to begin, visit fmpsdschools.ca/contact or call the Division Office at (780) 799-7900. We’re committed to working together to ensure the best outcomes for all students.

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.
