Dear Abbotsford School District families,

This past week has been a difficult time with the invasion of Ukraine. Children, youth and even adults may experience a range of emotions when they hear about or see images and videos from these deeply upsetting events. I wanted to reach out to share available supports, should you find them of use.

Each year the district honours our Long Term Service employees. These employees have served in the district for 20, 25, 30 and 35 years. This year we have just over 150 employees to recognize and thank for their service and commitment to our students over the years.
