Classes and enrolment
Typical class size
- Grades 7 to 9
- 31Typical for these grades across EPSB schools: 28from 226 classes
Each figure is the middle class size in those grades for 2025/26, among the classes whose sizes are published. A class is one teacher with one group of students, so a group with several teachers counts once per teacher, and in junior and senior high each course section counts. The EPSB figure is the middle of every EPSB school's own figure for those grades, across Alberta's release.
