2024-2025 ENROLMENT INFORMATION
GRADE 7 INFORMATION LETTER
On April 5, 2024 a letter was emailed to Students who are new to Ottewell for 2024-25.
Please note: although the information in the attached document is mainly directed to our new Grade 7 Students, the OSCR (Online Student Course Request) information applies to all students new to Ottewell. The only difference is that Grade 8 and 9 are semestered, so they will select fewer options that will run for a longer period of time.
Here is the letter for your reference: 2024/25 Grade 7 Spring Information Package and Course Request Form
For the 2024 - 2025 school year, Ottewell School is full in planned classes in Grades 7 to 9 in the regular program. We will now only accept resident students in Grades 7 to 9 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.
