Program enrolment may not equal a school's total enrolment because:

  • students may be enrolled in more than one program, and
  • some programs are not shown.

Enrolment data gives parents a general understanding of the number of students at a school or enrolled in a program. Although we’ve made every reasonable effort to ensure the data is accurate, there may still be errors. To confirm enrolment, contact the school.

About Rio Terrace School

Rio Terrace School is a highly specialized teaching and learning environment, offering only French Immersion and German Bilingual programming for students from kindergarten to Grade 6. We also host the only French Immersion Strategies program within Edmonton Public Schools. The school is located in a mature West Edmonton neighbourhood and serves a diverse array of students from many backgrounds and communities.

At Rio Terrace, we are committed to providing support for all students. We believe in innovative and adaptive teaching to foster a broad sense of curiosity and wonder. We use the following keystone ideas to support our students in receiving the best education possible: Responsibility, Integrity, Opportunity, Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Empathy and Service (RIO CARES).

SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY

We believe:

• That our classrooms function best as learning labs where students can experiment with a broad range of ideas
• In actively building relationships with the children and families we serve
• It is important to empower our students to make their own decisions by giving them authentic leadership opportunities whenever possible
