Getting a place
How children get a place in Elmwood
The neighbourhood school
The neighbourhood school is the one the board designates for the address; choice beyond it depends on space.
Independent schools
Admission to an independent school is by its own rules; fees apply, lowered by partial provincial funding.
Catholic schools
Here the Catholic schools form a funded separate system; non-Catholic families may apply where a board allows it.
French-language schools
A child qualifies for a French-language school when a parent’s first language is French or a parent went to French school in Canada; an admissions committee can admit others.
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. English and French, public and Catholic: the board decides the system, and the address decides the school.
- Bands, not ranks. Bands compare within Alberta only: never a place in a league table.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Elmwood and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
