Welcome to École Wîhkwêntôwin School

We are so pleased to let you know that our school has a new name: Wîhkwêntôwin School.

Wîhkwêntôwin is a Cree word that can be translated into English as ‘circle of friends’. Wîhkwêntôwin is pronounced we-kwen-to-win.

We are excited to share the same name as the community we call home!

Online and digital updates are underway, and the rollout of new signage and other changes at the school will take place over the next few months.

For the 2024 - 2025 school year, École Wîhkwêntôwin School is full in planned classes in Kindergarten to Grade 6 in the regular program, and Grades 7 to 9 in the Nellie McClung program. We will no longer accept enrolment requests for Grades 7 to 9 in the Nellie McClung program. For the regular program, a Kindergarten student who is a resident and lives in the school's attendance area may still register. We will only accept resident students in Grades 1 to 6 whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have newly moved into the school’s attendance area for the regular program. 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 enroll in another Division school with space in planned classes.

For the French immersion program, École Wîhkwêntôwin School is full in planned classes in Grade 2. We will no longer be accepting enrolment requests for these grade levels in this program. We continue to accept registrations for Kindergarten, Grade 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
