- Edmonton Catholic Teachers’ Local #54 was thrilled to give away TWENTY SCHOLARSHIPS to children of our members! Each scholarship was valued at $1000.

Congratulations to all of our winners and please see our website for the photo.
- Just a reminder to teachers that when posting an absence on AESOP, please put directly in the notes your parking stall number and any other pertinent information that substitutes need to have a successful day with your classes.
