Schools in Albert Park Regina - Parent's Guide to Public and Catholic Education

Is Albert Park the right fit for your family’s education needs? Here is everything you need to know about the schools serving this prestigious South Regina neighbourhood.

When my clients look at homes in Albert Park, the conversation almost always shifts to schools. And for good reason—this neighbourhood was practically designed with families in mind.

Unlike newer suburbs where schools are massive and overcrowded, Albert Park offers a mix of established community schools and quick access to the city’s best high schools.

Here is your breakdown of the public, Catholic, and private options available to residents of Albert Park.

---

1. The "Heart of the Neighbourhood": Dr. A.E. Perry School

If you drive down Lincoln Drive during recess, you will see why this school is the anchor of the community.

• System: Regina Public (English Track)

• Grades: Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 8

• Why Parents Love It: Dr. A.E. Perry is one of the few true "walking schools" left in the city. Because it is located right in the centre of the neighbourhood (surrounded by Perry Park), most kids here can walk or bike to class without ever crossing a major artery.

• The Vibe: It has a smaller, tight-knit community feel compared to the mega-schools in the Southeast.

2. Catholic Education: Deshaye Catholic School

For families seeking faith-based education, Deshaye Catholic School is the designated option.

• System: Regina Catholic (English Track)

• Grades: Pre-Kindergarten to Grade 8

• Location: While not technically inside Albert Park (it is located just across the border on Davin Crescent in Hillsdale), it is effectively part of the community.

• The Commute: For most residents, it is a 2-minute drive or a short school bus ride.

• Known For: A strong focus on community and excellent extracurricular arts programs.

3. French Immersion Options

Albert Park itself does not have a French Immersion school inside its borders, but the designated "feeder" schools are excellent and nearby.

• Public French Immersion: Students are bused to École Massey School in Hillsdale. Massey is widely regarded as one of the premier French Immersion programs in the city and feeds directly into Campbell Collegiate.

• Catholic French Immersion: Students attend École St. Pius X in Lakeview. This is a newly rebuilt, state-of-the-art facility that is highly sought after.

4. The High Schools: A Launchpad for University

One of the biggest selling points of Albert Park is that your teenagers are just minutes away from two of Regina’s top academic high schools.

Campbell Collegiate (Public)

Located just down Massey Road, Campbell is an academic powerhouse.

• Key Features: It is known for its Advanced Placement (AP) courses, a massive choral and arts program, and the specialized "Business" program (emphasizing Create, Collaborate, Communicate).

• Athletics: Campbell is historically dominant in provincial sports, particularly football and basketball.

Dr. Martin LeBoldus (Catholic)

Located on 25th Avenue, LeBoldus serves the entire South end.

• Key Features: It is a dual-track school (offering both English and French Immersion diplomas). Like Campbell, it offers a full suite of AP courses for university prep.

• The "Sun" Spirit: LeBoldus has a very spirited student body and a strong reputation for academic rigor.

5. The "After-School" Lifestyle

Education isn't just about the classroom. Living in Albert Park means your "third place" is the South Leisure Centre.

• Realtors Park: Located adjacent to the leisure centre, this is the hub for youth soccer and baseball.

• The Library: The George Bothwell Branch at Southland Mall is a favorite study spot for high schoolers (and it’s safe enough for them to walk there).

The Verdict

If education is your priority, Albert Park is a "Buy." You get the safety of a quiet, walking-distance elementary school (Perry) combined with quick access to the city’s best high schools (Campbell/LeBoldus).
