How children get a place in Richfield
Catholic schools
Here the Catholic schools form a funded separate system; non-Catholic families may apply where a board allows it.
Independent schools
Independent schools choose their students and charge fees, with part of their costs paid by the province when they qualify.
The neighbourhood school
Each board draws attendance areas: a child’s home address gives a designated school in each system. Families register with the board, and a school outside the area takes a child only if it has room.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Richfield or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
- 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. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- The year. Listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Boards come in one language each, and where the province funds Catholic schools, as public or Catholic; independent schools stand outside them.
