The All in for Youth support provided by E4C, The Family Centre and BGCBIGS, as well as the support provided through other partners, has been instrumental in improving the learning opportunities and outcomes for our students.

At Abbott School, you will also find Levelled Literacy Intervention, Readers and Writers Workshop, Guided Math and, starting at Grade 4, French as a Second Language. We are also fortunate to have the support of many community partners.

Rundle Heights Consolidation
Rundle Heights

On March 1, 2024, the Alberta Government announced full construction funding for the Catholic K-9 Rundle Heights Replacement School.
The Rundle Heights Replacement School will bring together students from St. Bernadette, St. Nicholas, and the former St. Jerome. It will be located on the former site of St. Jerome near 33 Street and 107 Avenue NW and will have space for 730 students.
Alberta Infrastructure is the lead on this project, and construction is scheduled to begin in 2025.
St. Bernadette Elementary
Beacon Heights
From their website:
As part of Edmonton Catholic Schools, St. Bernadette School serves the Beverly community, including Bergman, Beacon Heights, Abbottsfield and our new neighbours in Anderson Gardens. We welcome students of all faiths into our Catholic school community where the dedicated staff, together with parents, is committed to the education of our students. We believe that the partnership of home, school and parish will be successful in providing the positive Christian learning environment needed for each child to uniquely develop spiritually, academically, socially, emotionally and physically.
