Will you be back next year?

Is your Grade 12 student considering upgrading any courses or do they still have graduation requirements to fulfil? If they’re planning to return to Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) in 2022-23—for semester 1 or 2—they must register as a returning Grade 12 (R12) student by Sept. 29, 2022.  

If your child would like to return to their current school or another EIPS senior high school—for semester 1 or 2 next year—contact the applicable school office before the end of June or as soon as possible after school offices reopen on Aug. 22, 2022. School staff will provide specific details on how to complete the R12 registration.  

If your child requires additional flexibility in their schedule next year, Next Step may be a good fit. Next Step offers flexible programming through in-person courses at three community locations—Fort Saskatchewan, Sherwood Park and Vegreville. If your child would like to register at any one of the Next Step locations as an R12 student, contact the Next Step office at nextstep@eips.ca—staff are responding to messages throughout the summer. Registration is open to any EIPS families, regardless of where you live within the Division, as R12 programming through Next Step is offered across EIPS. 

The 2022-23 R12 registration deadline is Sept. 29, 2022—even if your child will not start classes next year until semester 2.  

If you have any questions, contact your chosen school directly.
