NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION

If your child is new to Edmonton Public Schools, you can register for school online. Visit the Division website to learn how to register for school.

If you have questions about registering for school, contact the school office at 780-476-7953.

Various extra-curricular activities may be offered throughout the school year. Please watch for a permission form from your child if they are interested in participating. Space is often limited and is based on a first come first served basis.

For the 2025 - 2026 school year, Sifton School is full in planned classes in Grades 5 and 6 in the regular program. We will now only accept resident students in these grades 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 enrol in another Division school with space in planned classes.

If you are registering for Kindergarten or are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online.

Welcome to the 2025-2026 School Year!

It is an honor to be back as the principal of Sifton School, and I'm incredibly excited for the year ahead. For those who are new to our community, I want to extend a warm welcome. And for all of you who have been part of the Sifton family, I'm incredibly grateful for your continued support.  Sifton is a vibrant and resilient community and our hope is the school becomes the hub of the community.

My commitment to Sifton remains steadfast - I believe that education is a collaborative effort shared among students, families, staff, and the broader community. I look forward to strengthening our existing relationships and working alongside you to ensure your child's success.

Our shared responsibility is guided by the core values of our division: equity, integrity, collaboration, and accountability. These principles are the foundation of our work, and we are committed to providing an inclusive and supportive environment where every student feels valued and empowered to reach their full potential. As we move forward, we will continue to be guided by the Division's strategic plan, which keeps student success at the heart of everything we do.

To keep you informed, we will continue to use SchoolZone as our main communication platform. I encourage you to check it daily for important updates.

I am eager to meet each of you and learn more about the unique strengths of our school community. Your insights are invaluable as we work together to support student growth and achievement. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, ideas, or concerns. I am here to listen and support you and your child on their educational journey.

Thank you for your trust in me and our school as we continue this important work together.

Yours in Partnership,

Pam Depeel

Principal
