The CBE receives funding for half-time kindergarten programs from Alberta Education. As a school system, we choose to supplement the half-time funding to provide full-day programs at a small number of schools that meet specific criteria. The list of schools offering full-time programs is reviewed annually, and the data is used to determine which schools have the greatest need and meet the established criteria. Please be advised that the data used to determine which schools will offer a full-time kindergarten program is updated each spring, and the schools that offer full-time kindergarten may change from year to year.
