Registration Dates

There are no set deadlines for enrolling your child in any one of the District's schools, although please note the following:

New to the district? Registration for grades 1-12 commences February 1st (or, if Feb. 1 falls on a weekend, the first business day following).
New to the district during the school year? Please stop by the school in your catchment area at any time during the school day to register.

Grade 6 Feeder School Student Registration

If your child is a grade 5 student at McMillan, Mountain, or Irene Kelleher Totí:ltawtxw and you reside in our catchment area, your child will automatically be enrolled in our school for the upcoming September. No additional registration process is necessary. However, for students attending Margaret Stenerson or Prince Charles, automatic enrollment at our school applies only if your residence is within the Fraser Middle catchment area. Please be aware that some addresses, even if associated with Margaret Stenerson or Prince Charles, may fall under the Clayburn Middle catchment area, in which case this automatic enrollment policy would not apply.

Registration Priority Order

According to Abbotsford School District policy, the following priorities are used to determine the acceptance of students in a particular school:

Catchment area students who attended the school during the previous school year
New catchment area students
Non-catchment area students who attended the school during the previous school year
New non-catchment area students (in-district)
Non-school district students

Please note that the vast majority of Non-Catchment Requests are deferred and there is a possibility we will be unable to accommodate those requests. Final decisions will be made after September 7.
