Treaty Land Acknowledgement

As members of the Dr. Anne Anderson community, we deeply respect the enduring legacy of Dr. Anne Anderson, a luminary figure whose life was devoted to safeguarding Indigenous cultural heritage and languages within the intricate fabric of Canadian history. Inspired by her example, we endeavour to follow her lead in advocating for the rights and well-being of all Indigenous people, and for the preservation of their cultures and traditions. We believe that by honouring her legacy, we can create a legacy of our own that is reflective of her values and ideals.

We acknowledge that we are on the Treaty Six territory, a land that numerous Indigenous people have called home for generations. We acknowledge the rich history, cultural heritage, and valuable contributions of the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene, and Nakota Sioux nations that have marked these lands for centuries. We are grateful and honoured to have the opportunity to live, learn, and work on this territory, and we pay our respects to all Indigenous people past, present, and emerging.

Ultimately, as members of this community, we hope to foster an environment of respect, empathy, and learning to allow Indigenous voices to be heard within the Dr. Anne Anderson community. We are dedicated to recognizing the past, understanding the present, and working collaboratively towards a better future for all.

Pre-Enrolment and Registration for 2024-2025

Pre-enrolment and Registration Update

Thanks to all the families who enrolled before 4 PM on March 22, 2024, to help our school get ready for the next year! We had more requests than available space; we continue to follow the Division’s regulation HC.AR - Student Admission and Enrolment closely. At this time, please note:

  • Grade 10 - We had more requests than available space, which means new students will be chosen by random selection in Grade 10. If your child is entering Grade 10, you will be notified about the results by April 12, 2024.

  • Grade 11 - Unfortunately, we were only able to accommodate resident students of EPS who reside in the Dr. Anne Anderson attendance area and who registered/pre-enrolled before 4 pm on March 22, 2024. Although we did not participate in a random selection, we will contact parents/guardians of students whom we are unable to accommodate to discuss the next steps.

  • Grade 12 - Unfortunately, we were only able to accommodate resident students of EPS who reside in the Dr. Anne Anderson attendance area and who registered/pre-enrolled before 4 pm on March 22, 2024. Although we did not participate in a random selection, we will contact parents/guardians of students whom we are unable to accommodate to discuss the next steps.

Welcome to Dr. Anne Anderson High School! We look forward to seeing you in the fall! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

For 2024-2025: Full in Planned Classes in Grades 10 to 12 

 For the 2024 - 2025 school year, Dr. Anne Anderson High School is full in planned classes in Grades 10 to 12 in both the regular and Advanced Placement programs. For the regular program only, we will now only accept resident students in Grades 10 to 12 whose parent(s)/legal guardian(s) have newly moved into the school’s attendance area. 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. For the Advanced Placement program, we will no longer accept enrolment requests for these grade levels in this program.

If you are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online.

Principal's Message

PUKOSEYIMOWIN - HOPE

When you enter our school for the first time, you will of course notice the large tipi structure that stands in the middle of our Agora. You will also notice that each of our thirteen tipi poles is adorned with a word written in cree syllabics. These inscriptions are a tribute to the language Dr. Anne Anderson, our namesake, worked tirelessly to preserve and remind us of the teachings gifted to us when we first opened our school. 

There is nothing quite like arriving at our school each morning to the glow of our fireplace, tipi and morning sun. As you bask in that glow, you will notice friends smiling, colleagues sharing with excitement the activity they have planned for the day, athletes in their Wolves apparel ready for their next match, explorers waiting eagerly with anticipation for their field trip to start, and young leaders prepared to take on today’s challenge and make the world a better place for all. When you stand in our Agora, you stand in the middle of thousands of stories of change, optimism, inspiration and passion. 

While each story is unique to its author, they all share a common thread: pukoseyimown (hope).

Hope is about dwelling in possibility and dreaming for the future. At Dr. Anne Anderson, we believe that schools are places of hope. As part of this belief, we open the doors of Dr. Anne Anderson High School to our students, their families and our community. We believe all members of our school contribute to a welcoming, caring, respectful and safe learning and working environment that respects diversity, commits to anti-racism education, and fosters a sense of belonging. Our school is a safe, welcoming and inclusive place where our connections with one another and our greater community are underpinned by kindness, compassion and respect.  We are relentless in our efforts to provide every student with a high quality educational experience that prepares them for their futures. Our students have endless opportunities to develop their interests, passions and leadership skills through school initiatives, teams, and extra-curricular offerings. By leveraging the informative voices of our youth, we are creating a school where students thrive, feel pride, and leave a legacy for all those who follow. 

With that, we welcome you to Dr. Anne Anderson High School, a place of learning, leadership and hope. 

Mr. Daniel Card

Acting For Principal
