Getting a place
How children get a place in Caernarvon
The neighbourhood school
Registration happens with the board, not the school; the board names the school for the address.
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
Independent schools set their own admissions and fees; the province funds part of their costs where they meet its conditions.
French-language schools
Section 23 rights-holders, francophone parents or those schooled in French in Canada, have a place; others apply to the board’s committee.
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. Schools as listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Every public school has a board: English or French, and in this province public or Catholic too. Independent schools have none.
- What isn’t here. Inspection reports with ratings don’t exist here, and the lists give enrolment for one year at most.
- Bands, not ranks. Alberta publishes the share at each PAT standard and suppresses small groups, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Caernarvon and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
