Information for those who wish to attend Sir Winston Churchill High School!

Thank you for your interest in applying to attend Sir Winston Churchill High School.  We are a large comprehensive high school offering exceptional regular programs of study in addition to the International Baccalaureate program.

We are currently operating at almost 100% capacity and have experienced difficulty in accommodating all students who are interested in attending our school.  Please be aware that our priority of registration is for students who are “in district” (as defined by the school act) and “in boundary”. An in-boundary student is defined as having a parent or legal guardian residing in the communities of Brentwood (west of Charleswood Dr.), Dalhousie, Edgemont, Hawkwood, Hamptons, Sherwood and Varsity.  Moving outside our areas may require a transfer to the new designated school for the next academic year.

From January to March 15th, we accept applications for registration and transfer requests for fall entry.  Transfer request forms are obtained from the student’s designated CBE high school (currently in grade 9) or current high school (currently enrolled in a CBE high school).  All applications are carefully reviewed using the School Act and Calgary Board of Education policies.  Families are notified of the school’s ability to accept the student’s application once all ‘in district” and “in boundary” students are registered. 

All students who are not Canadian citizens must register through Kingsland Centre. For further information please click here.

Applications for registration and transfer requests require following documentation:

  1. Report card and/or transcript from previous school
  2. Proof of residency.
    1. A utility bill with a service address (gas or electric bill)
    2. Confirmed offer to purchase of a home or a lease agreement.  These will require further confirmation at a later date.
    3. (Please Note:  we do not accept a driver’s licence or a telephone bill.)
  3. Official Canadian documentation
    1. Canadian Birth Certificate, Canadian Passport, or Landed Immigrant papers, etc.
  4. Legal guardianship / custody papers (as necessary)

Requests for special programs (i.e. I.B programme) will only be considered after registration is approved at Sir Winston Churchill High School. 

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the main office at 289-9241.
