Getting a place
How children get a place in Fairview
The neighbourhood school
Families enrol through the board, which assigns the school serving their street; transfers depend on space.
French-language schools
French-language schools are for children of section 23 rights-holders first; the board may admit others case by case.
Catholic schools
The province funds Catholic separate schools beside the public ones. Each separate board sets its own admission rules, usually giving Catholic families first place.
Independent schools
An independent school decides whom it takes and what it charges; provincial grants cover part of the cost.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. Bands compare within Alberta only: never a place in a league table.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- The year. Listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Each board covers a territory in one language and one system, public or Catholic; boards of different systems overlap.
- Which schools count. Counted: Fairview’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
