NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION FOR 2026-2027

To register your child at DMAA or have them added to the call back list, they must be a resident student (at least one parent or legal guardian living in Edmonton who is not Roman Catholic) and a parent/guardian must live in our designated attendance area (Ambleside & Glenridding Heights). A minimum of three pieces of proof of address are required.

Please submit NEW to EPSB registrations via the online registration process. If your child is attending another EPSB school and you have recently moved into the attendance area, please fill this Google Form. Please visit epsb.ca for more information. Complete registrations will be processed in the order in which they are received and you will receive a confirmation email the week of August 24.

If the school is full in the grade your child is entering, your child can go to the overflow designated school or another school with space. Your child will be added to our school’s callback list; if spaces in planned classes open up, they will be offered to students on the list.

Lottery Process

Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour School uses a lottery process, for new resident students living in the attendance area who wish to enrol in a grade that does not have space in planned classes, to help address enrolment growth and space shortages.

If we do not have space for your child they will be able to:

attend their overflow designated school (McKee School for K-6 or Vernon Barford School for Grades 7-9) or they may enrol at a Level 1 school with space in planned classes, and
request to be placed on a callback list for spaces that open before March 2027.

Sibling priority does not apply after pre-enrolment.

We will help resident families register at their overflow designated school. If families choose to go to another Edmonton Public school, they will need to call or email their preferred school to see if there is space in planned classes. Siblings will also be able to attend the overflow designated school, but if families choose to go to another Division school with space in planned classes, siblings are not guaranteed to attend.

Watch the Growth Control Model video for an overview of the lottery process. You can also read more about the lottery process on epsb.ca.

TRANSPORTATION TO OVERFLOW DESIGNATED SCHOOLS

Yellow bus service to McKee School will be available for eligible K–6 students. Bus fees will apply. Students who are eligible for yellow bus service must apply before June 1, 2026. Important information and application forms can be found on the Applying for Yellow Bus Service page on epsb.ca.

Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) is the preferred transportation method for junior high school students; however, if ETS is not available, eligible students attending Vernon Barford School may be able to apply for yellow bus service.

If you have any other questions, please contact the school at margaretannarmour@epsb.ca or 587-489-4704.
