Getting a place
How children get a place in Highland Park
The neighbourhood school
A home address sets the designated school in each board’s attendance area. Registration is with the board; a school outside the area admits only where there is space.
Catholic schools
Catholic schools are public here, run by separate boards that set their own admissions.
Independent schools
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.
French-language schools
French-language schools are for children of section 23 rights-holders first; the board may admit others case by case.
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
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Boards are set by language and, in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan, by faith: public or Catholic.
- Bands, not ranks. Alberta publishes the share at each PAT standard and suppresses small groups, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- Which schools count. Every school inside Highland Park’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
