Kindegarten - Grade 12
Universally accessible education is provided through Central Alberta schools, operated by school boards, and overseen by the Government of Alberta. Free education is provided up to the end of high school for all citizens and permanent residents under 20 years of age. Central Alberta residents can choose from a wide range of options in publicly funded education.
Alberta's public schools teach the Alberta curriculum and may select optional programs as required to meet the unique needs of their students and communities.
Public school selection includes Catholic schools, francophone schools, private schools, and charter schools. A number of unique and innovative programs can be accessed - including home education, online/virtual schools, outreach programs and alternative programs. Parents can also opt to home school their children. Choice is one of the important principles Alberta's education system is built on.
