About Renfrew Registration Process

Renfrew's Legacy School Campaign

For years families have been asking for more – they aren’t ready to give up their children to the larger world when the end of grade 6 comes. We listened and started planning, saving money to buy land and evolving our plans to offer junior and senior high school.

Renfrew’s highly skilled teams have the expertise to provide exceptional programs for our most vulnerable youth. Renfrew wants to inspire tomorrow’s youth with disabilities.

The time has come for a legacy project that will ensure we are able to continue delivering our programs for the next generation.

The proposed fifth school will accommodate approximately 225 – 250 students including an expansion to junior and senior high school.

Supporting Renfrew, Your Donations Make All the Difference

We invite you to share in the joy of supporting the many children who benefit from all that Renfrew Educational Services offers.

Renfrew was founded on the values of commitment, dedication to excellence and a love of children. Alberta Education covers most of the day-to-day operations in the classroom, however, that support does not cover the cost of our buildings, buses and other capital needs, or the cost of developing our programs and services. Your support will help us build schools, pay for buses and make it possible for us to continue to develop and offer the breadth of programs and services that have made us an acknowledged leader in the education of young children.

Assessment Services

At Renfrew, we believe assessment and therapy services should be easy to access. That’s why we offer convenient evening and weekend appointments with minimal wait times, available at our centres or in the comfort of your home.

Radial Head Dislocation

What is a Radial Head Dislocation: A radial head dislocation is when the radius bone in the forearm slips out of its normal position at the elbow joint. This injury is more common in children because their ligaments and joints are still developing.
