UPDATED NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION 

Families who need to register their child(ren) for school are welcome to do so over the summer break.  If you register over the summer, you will be contacted after staff return to school on August 20, 2020.  See more information on this page about registering new students using our online form.

We are still accepting students into Kindergarten from our primary (Matt Berry, Hollick Kenyon) and secondary (Brintnell) attendance areas.

Grades 1-9 are full.

Please note that Dr. Donald Massey School is closed from Grade 1 to 9 for families outside of Matt Berry and Hollick Kenyon neighbourhoods.  We are still accepting registrations for these grade levels if you are a resident of Edmonton Public Schools and have newly moved into our attendance area after April 15, 2020.  A resident student of Edmonton Public Schools has at least one parent or legal guardian that is a non-Roman Catholic and who resides withing the City of Edmonton.  Non-resident students may only enrol in another Division school with space remaining in planned classes.

Because schools remain closed to students and visitors due to COVID-19, new student registrations will now be submitted online. If your child is new to the Division, you must complete our school’s online registration form, fill out and upload the Student Registration form and submit supporting documents before your child(ren) can be registered for the upcoming school year. 

Our school will no longer accept printed registrations. Do not drop off student registration forms at the school. 

Submitting a registration package after the deadline of April 15, 2020 may limit your options to schools with available space. Learn more about registration dates and deadlines.

At Dr. Donald Massey School, we believe we must ensure all our students achieve the high levels of learning required for success in schools and in life. Our learning environment is grounded in a culture of collaboration. We value classrooms which are diverse in worldview, culture, language and interests. We strive to build strong relationships between staff, students, families and the community.

Dr. Donald Massey School is named after Donald Massey, whose lifelong commitment to education in Edmonton and Alberta has made a significant impact on generations of students.

Donald Massey is a native Edmontonian. He completed undergraduate work at the University of Alberta and graduate studies at the University of Kansas. He was a professor in the Elementary Education Department at the University of Alberta.

Dr. Massey also served as a Trustee on the Edmonton Public School Board. He was first elected in 1977 and served until 1989. In addition, Dr. Massey served as a Liberal MLA for Edmonton-Millwoods from 1993 - 2004, during which he undertook the role as Education critic for a period of time.

‌Dr. Donald Massey School values the contributions of our parent group and parent volunteers.  Together we work to promote the well-being and effectiveness of our students and programs.  Our Administrative Assistant, Angele deBoer, will coordinate the efforts of our volunteers.  If you can spare even a half hour a week, or a day once a month – let us know what your interests are.  We value any contribution you are able to make.  Volunteering in our school is one way for parents to show their children that they value their education.
