Year Round Schooling

Edmonton Catholic Schools has three schools offering a year round schooling calendar.  These schools balance their instructional days into four terms with vacation breaks between each of the terms. 

These three schools offer a five week summer break with students returning to school in early August – a two week Fall Break in the middle of October – a two week Christmas break that is the same as the rest of the schools – and a two week Spring Break in March.  There are also two other days in the school year that are taken as extra-long long weekends – these vary year to year.

The number of instructional days for students is exactly the same for both the year round calendar and the traditional calendar. 

Year round schooling gives parents in Edmonton Catholic Schools another choice for their children’s education and reduces the concern of learning loss over a longer summer break.  For more information about Year Round Schooling please contact one of the schools listed below.
