Welcome to Parkallen School's Web site. We are a small school located in southwest Edmonton, in close proximity to the University of Alberta. Our students come from the immediate community and surrounding areas.

Parkallen is a pleasant neighbourhood with tree-lined streets and very little traffic. Our building is situated in an attractive park with two playgrounds and a community ice rink for student use. The school population is very stable. Parkallen is the designated elementary school for residents of the Parkallen and Allendale communities.

We are proud of our academic achievement results and stress academic excellence across the curriculum. Our programs are also enriched by our exceptional music program and involvement in other fine arts activities. Parkallen is also a district site for special needs students coded as Opportunity. These students are an integral part of our community. Yellow bus service is available for these students, as well as students coming from the Allendale community.

Parent volunteers are a valuable asset at Parkallen. Many volunteer opportunities are available and your participation can be short or long term.

School Philosophy

We are committed to promoting each student’s learning ability, self-esteem and dignity to ensure that each child achieves to his or her potential. This is accomplished within a caring, supportive environment based on respect and acceptance of others.
