An Important Update for Brooks Junior High Families 📣 📣
We know there is a lot of excitement around the opening of the new Brooks Junior High School, and we’re just as excited to welcome students into their new space!
As final construction and preparations continue, there is a strong likelihood of a slight delay to the start of the 2026/27 school year for BJHS students.
The official start date has not yet been confirmed. Grasslands Public Schools and BJHS will share another update on August 24, 2026, with the confirmed start date and any other important information families will need.
We appreciate the patience and understanding of our BJHS families while our construction, maintenance, IT and school teams work hard to get everything ready for a safe and exciting opening.
Please take a moment to read the full update from BJHS Principal Jaret Hofer below: https://bjhs.grasslands.ab.ca/o/bjhs/article/17272

Its hard to believe that August is just around the corner 😱
We are busy putting the finishing touches on the new school, and noticed that school supplies are already out in the stores.
If you are ready to go shopping, here are our supply lists, if not, keep enjoying the sunshine 😎☀️
This week was busy completing exams, saying goodbye to students, and packing up everything that has been in the building since it opened in 1953.
Our staff spent the last day sharing memories, laughter and tears, realizing that this building will no longer exist next year.
"How lucky [we are] to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard"
If you are, or ever have been, a part of the Roadrunner family, thank you for being a part of BJHS . See you in the fall 💛🤎

Only 2 days left for our students!
- Monday is our Social Exam in the AM
- Tuesday is our LAST DAY OF SCHOOL! Students have a Science exam in the morning, then will be in our last assembly ever in this building.
Report cards will be given to students at 3:30 and no earlier as teachers will still be adding in final marks from the Science Exam.
We can't wait to soak up the last few days with our Roadrunners! ☀️☀️☀️
