How children get a place in Montgomery
Independent schools
Fees and admissions are each independent school’s own; the province covers a share of costs for those that meet its rules.
Catholic schools
Catholic separate schools are publicly funded here; each separate board decides whom it admits, Catholic families first.
French-language schools
French-language schools are for children of section 23 rights-holders first; the board may admit others case by case.
The neighbourhood school
Where a family lives sets the school: each board draws a catchment around every one of its schools, and a child living inside it has a place there. Other schools take children from outside when they have room.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Inside Montgomery’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- The kinds of school. Schools are grouped by what they teach: elementary, secondary, every grade, and the alternative, adult and online programs.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. A public school belongs to a board of one language; in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan a board is also public or Catholic. An independent school runs itself.
- Bands, not ranks. Top fifth means a result among the best fifth of Alberta’s schools; the card shows a school’s average fifth.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
