Welcome

Northmount School is pleased to offer both Regular and Cogito programming. Our mainstream program is available for students living in the Northmount and Schonsee communities. The Cogito alternative program is currently provided for students in Kindergarten to grade six through application only.

2024-2025 School Year

Northmount School is full in planned classes in the regular program AND full in Kindergarten to Grade 6 in the Cogito program. We will no longer accept enrolment requests for the Cogito program. for the regular program a Kindergarten student who is a resident and lives in the school's attendance area may still register. For Grades 1 to 6, we will now only accept a resident student whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have newly moved into the school's attendance area. A resident student of Edmonton Public schools has at least one parent or legal guardian living in Edmonton who is not Roman Catholic. Non-resident students can enrol in another Division school with space in planned classes.

If you are registering for Kindergarten or if you are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online.

Message from the Principal

Welcome Back to School! The staff has been working very hard to be prepared to ensure that your children have everything they need to be successful this year. We have grown in our numbers and the staff know that the children will need some time to settle into the flow and structure of school again. This is going to be a really engaging and fun year!

Whenever possible the children will be going outside. This may be for recess or it could be for physical education, as well as science or social studies. The teachers will use the outside as a teaching space and resource. Please make sure that the children come to school with outside clothing because even if they are dropped off by parents or the bus and they are warm, they will be going outside during the day as long as the air and the weather cooperates with us. That means outside until it is colder than -23C, air quality 7 or higher, heavy rain or wind. It could even be a combination of any of those things.

September will be full of new experiences and learning. Please remember that you can reach me at school by email, phone or by stopping by almost any time after 9:30am. If you are coming in to speak with me in person please call and make an appointment so that I can make sure I am available.

I am looking forward to another great year full of learning for everyone!

Ms. Nay
