Notice Regarding Overflow Designation for New Grade 10 to Grade 12 Regular Program Students Attending Western Canada High School

Western Canada High School is projected to be over capacity for the 2023-24 school year. The school will not be able to accommodate all new students who live within the designated school boundary. As a result, we must introduce a short-term solution to manage enrolment pressures. We will be implementing a cap on enrolment at Western Canada High School and designate an overflow school for new, regular program students in Grades 10 to 12.

Effective immediately, new regular program registrations that cannot be accommodated at Western Canada High School for the 2023-24 school year will be overflowed to Crescent Heights High School.

This is a temporary measure to ensure all students have a place to attend school for the 2023-24 school year. Establishing an overflow will balance enrolment between Western Canada High School and Crescent Heights High School for 2023-24 and will help keep students at schools that are as close to home as possible while a long-term decision is made. Affected communities will be notified if there are any further required changes in the fall of 2023. Please read the full notice for details.

​​​​​​​​​​Transferring Between CBE Schools

At the CBE, when you are transitioning from elementary to middle school, or from middle school to high school, you will be automatically registered at your designated school according to your home address. To find out what your designated school is, use our Find a School tool. 

If you are interested in attending a school other than your designated school, visit CBE's Transfers page for transfer information. Please note that some schools are quite full and not able to accept all transfer requests.
