Key Facts
- We have one of the smaller student/teacher ratios in the province of Alberta and the quality of Alberta education is ranked amongst the best in the world.
- Many of Golden Hills’ schools are amongst the best in Alberta and all are located in safe communities where walking to school or riding the school bus is safe, fun and promotes a healthy lifestyle for children.
- We accept students from grade 4-12 throughout the year or until our seats are full. For February and September intakes we strongly encourage students to submit their applications as soon as possible to guarantee a spot.
