About
Edwin Parr Composite School is situated in the beautiful river community of Athabasca. Our school has approximately 700 students in grade 7-12. As Aspen View School Division’s largest school we are able to provide a wide range of programming for our students. We offer all academic classes as well as many CTS course including welding, mechanics, wood shop, fitness, cosmetology, gardening, paleontology and many more. The fine arts are also very important to our students as they express themselves in band, general music, art, drawing, painting and our provincially recognized drama program. Our goal at Edwin Parr is to help our students grow and develop into citizens that have the skills, empathy and resilience to become productive members of our community. Our strong relationship with, parents, students and community has created a culture of learning based on caring and respect. Our focus is on academics but we understand that learning is different for each individual student. This accepting and supportive culture allows our students to reach their individual potential.
