Student Registration

To register your student at your neighbourhood school or program of choice, please follow these steps:

  1. Determine your catchment school by using the School Locator.

    Note: While most, if not all, students living in a school’s local catchment will be accommodated at that school, they cannot be guaranteed placement in the catchment area school and may be required to go to the nearest school having space available.

  2. Review the instructions for creating an account and starting a student registration in MyEducation BC.
  3. Create an account in MyEducation BC (if you have an existing Family portal account for School District 71, you can simply log in).If you have a MyEducation BC account with another school district, you will need to create a new MyEducation BC account for School District 71.
  4. Once logged in, click on the Initiate button on the home page and follow the registration steps.
