Designated Schools

With the authority of the Education Act, EIPS has created a boundary system where students are assigned a designated school, which is usually their neighbourhood school, depending on school capacity and utilization. By providing a designated school for each child, EIPS ensures there is space available in that school to meet children's educational needs. Refer to Administrative Procedure 305: School Attendance Areas and Requests to Attend Non-Designated Schools for more information.

The current attendance boundaries create a feeder school framework wherever possible. A feeder school framework is when all students designated to a particular elementary school are designated together as one group to a subsequent junior and senior high school. Within this model, students who attend their designated schools from kindergarten to Grade 12 will transition with all other students in the same school from elementary to junior high and then to senior high.

Returning students wishing to attend a non-designated school, for grades 1-12, must indicate their preference during the returning student registration process, which takes place February 1-28, annually. Those who wish to attend a non-designated school for kindergarten can indicate that preference during kindergarten registration, which opens February 1 each year.

Find Your Designated School

Every child enrolled in EIPS has a designated school. The best way to find your child's designated school is to use our online tool—review the information below before getting started. Attendance boundary maps are also available for your reference.

Find my designated school: 2021-22 and 2022-23 

HOW-TO: Find your designated school using our online tool
Parents who are interested in an alternative program (languages, Logos, Christian, Outreach, Special Education) must select the Advanced Search button at the top of the screen in the online tool before proceeding with the steps below. 

  1. Select a grade: choose the appropriate grade level for your child from the drop-down menu.
  2. Enter address information: Enter your physical address using the information you would provide to emergency response personnel. A valid house number and street name/number are required to obtain information. If you live in a subdivision, input your house number in the House # field and the subdivision name in the Street field. If you live in the community of Josephburg or St. Michael, input your house number in the House # field and "Josephburg" or "St. Michael" in the Street field. For example, 55 Josephburg, rather than 55 Main Street.
  3. Start the search: Click on the Find School/Transportation Info button to display the designated school (your school of residence) for the grade level and address provided.
  4. If your house number and/or street name/number are not recognized, select the appropriate match from the drop-down menu, click Use Selected Match, and re-click the Find School/Transportation Info button.
  5. Complete another search: Click on the Simple Search link and follow the steps above to find information for another grade level.
