SCHOOL PROFILE

Ekota School is a proud neighborhood K-6 school and a designated Division site for the Interactions Program, located in southeast Mill Woods. Our name is rooted in the Cree language, meaning "special place," which reflects our commitment to providing a "special place to raise a family." We are fortunate to collaborate with a variety of local businesses, community resource networks, and post-secondary institutions. These partnerships allow us to offer an enriched learning environment while staying deeply connected to the families we serve.

Please Note: 

For the 2025 - 2026 school year, with the exception of Kindergarten, Ekota School is full in planned classes in the regular program. We will now 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 registering for Kindergarten or are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online.
