Current School Year (2024-2025)

For the 2024 - 2025 school year, TD Baker School is full in planned classes in Grade 9 in the regular program. We will now only accept resident students in Grade 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.

Overflow school for Svend Hansen School for 2024–26

As of July 1, 2024, TD Baker School will be one of the overflow designated schools for the Svend Hansen School Laurel West attendance area. This will not affect any students currently attending our school. 

Laurel West families

New resident students who newly move into the Laurel West neighbourhood can attend Svend Hansen School if the school is not full in that grade. If the grade is full, the student can:

  • attend Daly Grove (K–6) or T. D. Baker (7–9) schools, or
  • attend another Division school with space in planned classes, or
  • remain at their current school.

All Laurel West students currently enrolled in Kate Chegwin and Weinlos schools may continue to attend their current schools until their program is completed.

For TD Baker,  Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) is the preferred transportation method for junior high students. If ETS is not available, eligible students attending their overflow designated school may be able to apply for yellow bus service. Bus fees will apply.

Families who choose to attend another Division school rather than an overflow designated school will need to make their own transportation arrangements to get their child to and from school.
