Step 1 – Attend a Parent Information Session

Who should attend?
If you are a parent/guardian who is thinking about Edmonton Christian Schools for their child(ren), you should attend — even if you’re an ECS graduate yourself! The session gives parents a clear picture of how the school and Society partnership works today. Current ECS families adding a new sibling do not need to attend.

Why do we require this?
At the session, you’ll learn what makes Edmonton Christian Schools unique — our Christ-centred approach to education, what we believe, our mission, our partnership with parents and Edmonton Public Schools, and how faith and learning come together every day. You’ll also have a chance to tour the school and meet the principal or assistant principal.

Before registering with EPSB, please sign up for a Parent Information Session.

We offer several Parent Information Sessions on different dates. The schedule will be posted soon, so please check back here to see the options and sign up for a session that works for you. 

Step 2 – Register with Edmonton Public Schools (EPSB)

ECS is an alternative program within Edmonton Public Schools.

After you’ve attended the Parent Information Session and decided ECS is the right fit for your family, your next step is to register your child with Edmonton Public Schools.

• If you are new to Edmonton Public Schools, complete an EPSB online registration form.
• If your child already attends an EPSB school, use the pre-enrolment process through SchoolZone during the registration period.

Important:

• Registrations must be completed during the EPSB registration period (February 2, 2026 – March 25, 2026, at 4:00 PM) to be considered in the first round of enrolments.
• Registrations received after the March deadline will only be reviewed if space remains after all on-time registrations have been processed.

Step 3 – Submit Your ESCE Forms and Review Payment Options

After you’ve registered with EPSB, finalize your ECS application by completing the required steps with the Edmonton Society for Christian Education (ESCE):

• Submit your signed Partnership Agreement (Provided at the information session)
• Review the Christian Program Fee payment options. Once you receive confirmation of enrolment, please inform us of which payment option your family will use.
• (Optional) Submit your Summary Statement of Faith. ESCE membership helps support Christian education and connects your family to the wider ECS community.

After you Apply

By the end of April, you will be contacted by the school to confirm enrolment status. 

Important:

• Completing registration with Edmonton Public Schools does not guarantee enrolment at Edmonton Christian Schools.
• Enrolment depends on available space at each grade level.
• Enrolment may be determined through a random selection process for Edmonton residents if needed.
