Dr. Anne Anderson School, the division's first new high school in 12 years, will welcome students from Grade 10 and 11 this fall, then expand to include Grade 12 in the 2022 school year.
EDMONTON A new public high school and recreation centre in southwest Edmonton is opening this fall after years of planning. The Dr. Anne Anderson School and Community Centre will open in September with a capacity of approximately 2,000 students. “The southwest quadrant of the city continues to be the fastest growing part of the city, we absolutely require high school space to accommodate the number of students that will be high school age,” said EPSB Trustee Nathan Ip. “So the high school will certainly be an important part of ensuring we have high quality learning spaces for our students.” The school was announced in 2017 and is named after Dr. Anne Anderson, an author of more than 90 books about the Cree language and Metis history and traditions.
