Back to School 2025-2026

  • Announcement
25-26StartUp

We look forward to welcoming back students on September 2, 2025, for the 2025-2026 school year. As A Place for All and with Pathways for All, Foothills School Division provides quality learning opportunities for students from junior kindergarten (preschool) through to grade 12. 

Below is a quick glance at what to expect for the start of the upcoming school year. We know that the potential province-wide labour action by the Alberta Teachers' Association is top-of-mind.  In our commitment to informing our partners in education, we will contact families if strike notice is served. We have also set up a page dedicated to updates for your reference; please visit Labour Relations | ATA for updates.
