Call For Volunteers to Audit GPA Financial Statements

We need two volunteers to assist with our annual internal audit process. This involves reviewing our two financial statements and the spreadsheet behind them, asking questions if necessary, then signing the statements and an audit letter.

The time commitment is 2-4 hours and the review will be done between July 21 and August 8. You do not need to be an accountant! If you are able to help, please email at info@gatecalgary.ca.


Thank You Casino Volunteers! 

The March 2025 Casino raised $82,995 for GATE students! These funds will go towards field trips, classroom supports, science and math supplies, artist residences, and technology for our GATE students.

A heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you who volunteered your time at the Casino fundraiser.

The GPA has revised its Bylaws to modernize them and to better reflect the roles and activities of the GPA. The new Bylaws will need to be approved by GPA members at an upcoming special meeting.

Look out for more information on an upcoming meeting to adopt the new GPA bylaws.
