    School Philosophy

    At Beacon Heights School, we strive to ensure that all of our students are physically and emotionally healthy, safe, engaged, supported and intellectually challenged. We believe that our students should be given the opportunity to work at their ability level and to have a strong sense of self worth that is connected to meaningful achievement.  We will  engage in active learning and teaching that is relevant to our daily lives. We will develop skills for problem solving and critical thinking, which will lead to positive leadership and self discipline; establish an inclusive community through relationship building and respect, which will give everyone a place to belong; create opportunities to apply current and future technologies.  This means that the students understand what they need to do, how they need to do it, and when they need to do it by.  It speaks to a comprehension assessment plan that is transparent to the children using it, and to the parents that need to work with it.

"A Great Little School"

We are happy that you have found us and will discover that there are wonderful things happening in our building.

We are an Elementary (K-Grade 6) community school with three Interactions Class Rooms. Students are eager to come and be part of our community.  A resident student of Edmonton Public Schools has at least one parent or legal guardian that is a non-Roman Catholic and who resides within the City of Edmonton. Non-resident students may only enrol in another Division school with space remaining in planned classes.

Students are provided with a healthy morning snack, school supplies, field trips and lunch room supervision at no cost to families.

If you would like to contact us and see if this would be the place for your family please call our office 780-479-4038. We can let you know what sort of information we need from you to register in our "Great Little School".  

For the 2024 - 2025 school year, Beacon Heights School is full in planned classes from Kindergarten to Grade 6 in the regular program. A Kindergarten student who is a resident and lives in the school's attendance area may still register. We will only accept resident students in Grades 1 to 6 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.

If you are within our attendance area and registering for Kindergarten or if you are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online.

Principal's Message

Hi Folks!

Thank you for checking out our website.  I am hoping that this message finds that you and your family are doing well.  At Beacon Heights we are proud of our strong focus on Literacy and Numeracy learning as well as our Hands on Science Program.  Students participate in Structured Literacy including formal instruction in phonics and morphology. 

Our hands on Science program features learning about "Design Thinking", where students identify a problem and then brainstorm and ultimately test their theories.  Our dedicated Science Teacher, Ms. Hrdlicka, leads students through this learning twice a week.  It is a fan favorite. 

We are a "Breakfast Club of Canada School" which means that we serve a nutritious breakfast every morning and there are snacks and lunch support availabile for students who need it.

At Beacon Heights we believe that families and students should focus on learning without having to worry about other costs associated with school.  Through the generous support of our School Council, we are able to provide free school supplies and feild trips to all students in the school.

If you have any questions about our school you can call us at 780-479-4038 starting at 8:15 am until 4:00 pm everyday. Please drop by and say hello! We are "A Great Little School".

A bit about our hours: the first bell rings at 8:30 am and the last bell is at 3:35 pm.  Thursdays are our early dismissal days with the last bell ringing at 1:56 pm 

Yours in Partnership,

Jennifer Taylor, Principal
