Spring Break begins on Saturday, March 21, 2026. For Chaparral School and the broader CBE calendar, schools are closed through the Spring Break period listed for March 21-29, with classes resuming afterward. It is a good time to confirm any childcare arrangements and to set aside a moment for backpacks, gym gear, and library books so the return to routine on Monday is smoother.

About Chaparral, AB
Discover what makes Chaparral such a great place to live and explore.
Chaparral is a welcoming southeast Calgary community built around Lake Chaparral, where residents enjoy walkable pathways, shoreline views, and a strong sense of neighborhood pride. With Fish Creek Provincial Park close by, it’s easy to fit in a quick walk or bike ride after work, and the area often feels bright and open even when the air is still crisp. Streets tend to be quiet and family-friendly, with parks and green spaces that make day-to-day living feel relaxed.
For commuting and errands, Chaparral offers quick connections to Macleod Trail and Stoney Trail, and the Somerset–Bridlewood CTrain station is a convenient option not far away. Daily needs are well covered by nearby shopping and services in Shawnessy and along 162 Avenue, with more dining, recreation, and health amenities within easy driving distance. Housing includes a mix of detached homes, townhomes, and rental options, appealing to first-time buyers, move-up households, and renters who want lake access and nearby trails without being far from city conveniences.
