Okotoks and Area School Boundary Engagement

Approximately 150 parents and community members attended Christ The Redeemer Catholic Schools' Okotoks and Area School Boundary Engagement Session on Monday, November 2.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to learn more about the potential attendance boundary and programming scenarios and share their perspectives, questions and considerations.

With the opening of the new École Good Shepherd School in D’Arcy Ranch as a Kindergarten to Grade 9 school in Fall 2027, CTR is reviewing attendance boundaries and program configurations in Okotoks to consider how students and families can best be served across the affected school communities.

During the engagement session, participants received background information and an overview of six potential scenarios before taking part in facilitated round-table discussions.

Complete the Feedback Form *Please note: the feedback form will close on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.

The online form provides information about each of the six scenarios and an opportunity to share feedback, concerns, questions and other considerations.

This engagement is a consultation, not a vote. Feedback will be considered alongside enrolment projections, school capacity, programming and long-term sustainability before recommendations are presented to the Board of Trustees for its consideration and final decision.

How your feedback will be used

Feedback gathered through the November 2 engagement session and online feedback form will be reviewed and summarized to identify key themes, questions and considerations raised by families. Individual comments will not be attributed by name in the public summary.

What's next?

1. Review community feedback
All feedback and questions received through the engagement session and online form will be collected, reviewed and summarized.

2. Share information
The engagement presentation and responses to community questions will be posted on the division and school websites.

3. Board decision
The Board of Trustees will review the consultation findings and recommendations before making its final decision on attendance boundaries.

Families will be notified of the decision by the end of November, ahead of registration opening in December.

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to participate in this important consultation. Your questions, perspectives and feedback will help inform the Board of Trustees' decision on attendance boundaries for Fall 2027.
