I moved up on June 30. I had a great day with my family and July 1 started out amazing. The smoke settled in, but at 6 p.m., the skies opened and it was a beautiful evening until 9:30 p.m. When the lightning struck, we knew we had to get out with our three kids. In a panic, we grabbed our bags and proceeded to get down Highland Drive as fast as we could, only to be held up in traffic for over an hour. There was thunder, lightning and a fire coming up the hill. I was ready to abandon my car and run down.

On May 5, catchment changes were discussed regarding Juniper Ridge elementary, Marion Schilling elementary and the re-opening of Ralph Bell, which the district shuttered in 2010, but still owns. Among the concerns voiced by those who will be affected are the division of the Juniper Ridge neighbourhood into two different catchment areas, concerns over criminal activity in the vicinity of the to-be-reopened Ralph Bell and the mental health and well-being of students. Currently, Juniper Ridge elementary currently catches all students living in Juniper Ridge, and Marion Schilling elementary catches all students in Valleyview and Rose Hill. The proposed catchment area for Ralph Bell elementary would capture all students in Rose Hill, the western end of Juniper Ridge and the western tip of Valleyview.
