Registration

CURRENT STUDENT PRE-ENROLMENT

Children currently attending an Edmonton Public School can pre-enrol for the 2025-26 school year on SchoolZone beginning at 8:00 AM on February 3.  Find important dates and deadlines and learn more about pre-enrolment here.

NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION 

New student registration begins February 3, 2025. Families of children entering Kindergarten to Grade 9 can visit new student registration to register for the 2025–26 school year, as well as for the remainder of this school year. 

To register, your child must be a resident student which means that at least one parent or legal guardian lives in Edmonton and is not Roman Catholic. Three pieces of proof of address are required. Please note that we cannot accept registrations with future possession/move in dates.

Due to the lottery process (see below) and the number of inquiries we receive, we do not host an open house in the spring or offer individual tours.  If you have questions about our school or the registration process, please email us at margaretannarmour@epsb.ca.

LOTTERY PROCESS

Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour School uses a lottery process 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 19, 2026 

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. 

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, 2024. 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.
