Many home education families in Canada ask for information on how to contact school boards in their province.

Before approaching a school board it is helpful to write out your family's educational philosophy. When you check with the board you are interested in you will then be better able to ascertain if their educational philosophy matches yours. If you need help in clarifying your own educational philosophy check Canadian Home Education Recomended Resources for some great home education parent resources.

Alberta School Boards
In Alberta there are "Willing Non-Resident" School Boards which have shown that they are willing to work with home education families to facilitate their home school. We are fortunate enough to have choices as to how we go about teaching our children. One of the ways those choices can be expressed is by how we register with a school board. We can go "aligned" or "fully aligned" and use the Alberta Program of Studies - which would equivalent to teaching what is taught in the schools. Or you can go "Goals and Standards" which has been compared to "raising a good citizen". When choosing your school board it is a good idea to ask them if they prefer one of these choices over another.

The following list of Alberta school boards is for your reference and not intended to recommend any particular school board over another. At the bottom of this list are more helpful information links for Albertan Home Educators.
