Registration

REGISTRATION AND THE LOTTERY PROCESS - 2024-2025

WE HAVE REACHED CAPACITY IN MOST GRADES.  See below for more information about the lottery process and what to do if we do not have a space for your child.

If your child is new to Edmonton Public Schools, you can register for school online. Visit the Division website to learn more.  Children must be resident students 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.

To help address enrolment growth and space shortages, Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour had a lottery process for new students enrolling for the 2024–25 school year. If we do not have space for your child for the 2024-25 school year they will:

  • be able to attend their overflow designated school (McKee School) or enrol at a Level 1 school with space in planned classes. 
  • be able to request to be placed on a callback list for spaces that open before March 21, 2025 

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.
