Wed, 31 Aug, 2022

A new school year is underway at Edmonton Public Schools and we’re excited to welcome you back from summer break. If you’re new to the Division or need a refresher on where to find some important information, you’ve come to the right place. 

Welcome from the Superintendent

2022–23 Division calendar

Take a look at the 2022–23 Division calendar for dates you need to know about for this school year.

Health and safety information

The Division is using many strategies that work together to protect our school communities and keep staff and students as safe as possible. Read our COVID-19 information.

SchoolZone

SchoolZone is a secure website that holds important information about your child’s learning. Sign in to SchoolZone to find out more about homework, attendance records, progress reports and school events. 

SchoolMessenger

SchoolMessenger is an urgent message system that can call and text you when there is an emergency, like a fire or evacuation, at your child’s school. Learn more about SchoolMessenger and how to sign up.

Transportation

Existing riders can find their bus route information on SchoolZone. If you’re new to the Division, or your child is starting Kindergarten and using the bus for the first time, your bus route information is mailed to you. Learn more about transportation services for students. 

Slow down

We want to remind motorists to slow down as students head back to classes. Drivers are required to slow to 30 km/h in all in playground zones from 7:30 a.m.–9 p.m. every day.

Celebrate the first day of school

We're so happy to have the sights and sounds of laughter and learning filling school halls and classrooms again. Check out our first day of school video.
