WELCOME TO PRINCETON SCHOOL
Welcome
Princeton School offers programming for students entering Kindergarten through Grade 6. This includes our Neighbourhood program, our Cogito program for Kindergarten and Grade 1, and dedicated classrooms for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder who have complex needs.
With approximately 220 students, Princeton provides a caring, safe, and close-knit learning community where every child is known, valued, and supported.
If you are registering for Kindergarten or are new to Edmonton Public Schools, you must register online. A resident student of Edmonton Public Schools has at least one parent or legal guardian living in Edmonton who is not Roman Catholic.
Cogito K-1 at Princeton School for the 2025-2026 School Year
We are excited to announce that Princeton School will be offering Cogito programming for students in K-1, in addition to our regular program, in the 2025-2026 school year. Please contact the office at 780-476-2344 to learn more.
COGITO KINDERGARTEN APPLICATIONS & 'MEETINGS FOR SUCCESS':
All Kindergarten applicants interested in the Cogito Program will be required to participate in a 'Meeting for Success'. This is an opportunity for prospective students to engage in age-appropriate tasks presented in a Cogito setting while being observed by the teachers.
School Administration will use the evidence and observations collected during the ‘Meeting for Success’ to engage parents in a conversation about the child’s readiness for the expectations and demands of the program. These meetings are an important way to connect with our new families and students, and this connection is vital to student success in the Cogito program.
GRADE 1 NEW REGISTRATIONS:
New registrants interested in the Cogito Program will be asked to provide a copy of their latest Progress Report. School Administration can use this to engage parents in a conversation about the child’s readiness for the expectations and demands of the program. Levels of achievement are not used as the sole determining factor for the child’s readiness for the program.
PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Welcome to the 2025–2026 School Year!
At Princeton School, we are proud to nurture a warm, inclusive, and high-achieving learning environment where students feel safe, respected, and inspired to try their best every day. Whether you're a returning family or new to our school community—welcome! We look forward to getting to know you and partnering in your child’s educational journey.
Princeton is home to three distinct and valued programs: our Interactions program, supporting students with autism; Cogito, a structured, content-rich program that emphasizes a strong academic foundation; and our Neighbourhood program, serving the diverse learning needs of our community. Together, these programs create a rich and vibrant learning environment where every child can thrive.
As we continue to align our work with Edmonton Public Schools' strategic plan (2022–2026), our focus remains on academic excellence, student well-being, and equity for all. Strong foundations in literacy and numeracy continue to be a priority, and our dedicated staff are committed to delivering engaging, high-quality instruction that supports each learner's growth.
We know that relationships matter. By working together—with families, students, and our wider community—we can create the conditions for every student to succeed.
Thank you for choosing Princeton. We’re excited for the year ahead and all the possibilities it holds!
Yours in partnership,
Annette Hlavacek
Principal, Princeton School
