This is the legacy notification system for submitting notification via email, fax, or mail. Click here to use the highly secure, streamlined online system.
Welcome to the Notification page! Scroll to the bottom for a helpful how-to video, or read on.
To join us, please complete a Notification Form for each child and one Family Form for your family information. We also require a copy of your child’s Canadian Birth Certificate (or proof of Canadian Citizenship). You may include an Education Program Plan (Part D) now, or send it to us separately. (Please note, the deadline for us to submit student data to AB Education is September 29. Please send your paperwork before then.)
The forms are fairly straightforward, though one common question on the Notification Form is regarding the Declaration by Parent (Part B), and the two checkboxes below. If you check the first box, you indicate that you will be using Alberta Curriculum at home, fulfilling all of the same outcomes as you would in school. The second option (most used by home educators) means that you will be creating your own plan for your child, using curricula that suit your goals and your child's learning style so long as your child works toward achieving the “Schedule of Learning Outcomes for Students Receiving Home Education Programs That Do Not Follow the Alberta Programs of Study”. You may view the Schedule of Learning Outcomes here. Please sign the form (both parents if possible), date it, and fax, mail, or scan and email it to us.
If you wish to receive Student Photo ID cards, useful for gaining discounts, free entry into some museums, etc), you may download and print from your Parent Portal Account. Instructions can be found here.
Once we have received your notification, we will contact you to let you know they have arrived. A facilitator will be matched to your family, and will make contact. If you would like immediate contact with a facilitator, please let us know. We look forward to serving you.
