Registration Process

For the 2026-27 school year, the EPSB pre-enrolment deadline is March 25, 2026.  It is imperative that Steps 1-4 detailed below must be fully completed prior to this deadline. 

 

Please Note:  Submission of an application package for enrolment into Vimy Ridge Academy does not mean guaranteed acceptance. Confirmation of acceptance will follow the school's registration process detailed below.

Two groups of students are guaranteed acceptance into Vimy as long as they apply before the EPSB pre-enrolment deadline of March 25, 2026:

  • Students with siblings currently attending Vimy and who will continue to attend Vimy in 2026-27
  • Students attending Donnan School in their Sports Alternative program 
Students not identified as one of the two above groups requesting to enrol at Vimy will be prioritized according to their residency status.  Students who are deemed to be residents of the Edmonton Public School Board (at least one parent resides in the City of Edmonton, and that parent is not Roman Catholic) receive priority over students who are not residents of the Edmonton Public School Board. 
 
Step 1: Sign up for an Academy Shadow with your academy of choice.

Step 2: Contact your academy director with any questions you may have.

Step 3: Upon completion of the academy shadow, a link will be shared to register with the partner organization of the Academy that you chose:
  • AAD (Academic Athletic Development) coordinates programming for the Baseball/Softball, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Esports, Golf, Hockey, Lacrosse, Outdoor Pursuits, Ringette, and Sport Fit Academies
  • Edmonton School of Ballet coordinates programming for the Dance Academy
  • Green and Gold coordinates programming for the Soccer Academy
  • OHA coordinates programming for the Okanagan Hockey Academy

Step 4: Upon completion of the partner registration, a link will be shared to fill out the school portion of your application.

Step 5: The academy director and school admin will review all application packages to confirm that the student has met all requirements for entrance into the academy and determine if there is space available at the applicant's grade level.

Step 6: A letter will be sent out to confirm acceptance.
