Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour is one of eleven Edmonton Public schools at capacity for 2026–27. Designated addresses go into a lottery, and students who don't get a spot are assigned McKee (9.2 km for grades K-6) and Vernon Barford (6.5 km for grades 7-9).

Named overflow if Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour is full for these grades.

Dr. Margaret-Ann Armour's overflow runs long: McKee is 9.2 km for elementary, Vernon Barford 6.5 km for junior high. That is a daily commute, not a walk — and Level 3 means you may never get a seat at Armour at all. Students who don't win the lottery go to whichever backup EPSB names for their grade band.

What this page won't tell you.

We don't publish school ratings or test scores. The province's file didn't hold up when we went to join it, and a made-up ranking is worse than none.

A designated school is not a reserved desk. Enrolment is the board's call, every year.
