Recycling Club

Fort McMurray Islamic School's recycling club is an opportunity for students in Grades 4, 5, and 6, who are passionate about the environment, to be active school citizens by providing responsible and effective recycling services for our facilities. They collect paper recycling on a weekly basis and assist in transporting it to our community recycling centers. We also ensure proper recycling of our drink containers (juice boxes, water bottles, and cans).This program is geared toward socially responsible students who are looking to make a difference in their local community.

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.
