    Registration Information

    New Student Registration 2024-25

    For the 2024 - 2025 school year, Soraya Hafez School is full in planned classes in 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 as long as they are not previously registered and . 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.

    Children who are five years old on or before December 31, 2024 (born in 2019) may register in Kindergarten for the 2024-25 school year.

    You can use the EPSB Find a School Tool to look up your attendance area school. Find A School

    Parent Participation

    At Soraya Hafez School we believe that education is a partnership between home and school. Parent involvement is strongly encouraged and appreciated. Parents can:

    • encourage their child to talk about what they have learned and celebrate their achievements.
    • be acquainted with the teacher and other school staff.
    • attend various functions that are held at the school.
    • help with field trips and special events.
    • attend student progress conferences and talk to the teacher when there are questions or concerns.
    • contact the principal if they have a concern or wish to share a special event in the child’s life.
    • attend School Council meetings.

    Parent Council

    The Soraya Hafez School Council gives parents an opportunity to come together to provide support, enhance student learning and to promote the well-being and overall effectiveness of the school community.

    An active School Council facilitates the school/home/community partnership and helps to develop an atmosphere of mutual cooperation through active participation in the school.

    The School Council supports meaningful parental involvement, which we know supports student success!
