Lottery process at Shauna May Seneca School
Edmonton Public Schools reviews enrolment and programs at all schools in our Division each fall to monitor growth and see where schools are on the Division’s Growth Control Model. After carefully reviewing our enrolment this fall, Edmonton Public Schools has determined our school is at capacity and is implementing a lottery process for new resident students enrolling at our school for the 2023–24 school year. This will not impact current students who attend our school.
The school will not accept new registrations from families in the attendance area if the student is not a resident of Edmonton Public Schools. A student is considered a resident of Edmonton Public Schools if they have at least one parent who lives in Edmonton who is not Roman Catholic.
Resident students who aren’t selected through the lottery process can attend the overflow designated schools, Grace Martin (K-6), Edith Rogers (7-9), a school with space in planned classes, or remain at their current school, if applicable.
Siblings of current students attending our school
New resident students from the attendance area with a sibling who is returning to the school next year will get priority, but are not guaranteed to attend.
