Holden Rural Academy is doing a fundraiser for the Children's Stollery Hospital in Edmonton! Our goal is to raise $2000! Students have been given pledge forms; if they need another, they can stop by the office. We appreciate any and all donations towards this cause! To donate, come to our school or talk to your student.
A NEW EXPERIENCE in Education
The Holden Rural Academy is a public charter school that was approved by the Minister of Education in July 2022. We offer Place-Based Education to grade 7 – 12 students – where learning takes place in the classroom and in the community.
Our staff work together with students and families to develop an education plan that has clear expectations for academic achievement and helps students develop career goals.
After a morning devoted to core courses, students are able to choose from a variety of projects in the afternoon, many of them off-campus.
We operate on a 4 day week that runs, most often, from Monday to Thursday (with some exceptions).
Congratulations, graduates of the 2024/25 school year! May your future be ever bright.
Thank you to the staff of 2024/25 for your dedication to our students!
