About Us:

Holy Redeemer Catholic High School serves the educational needs of the Edson and area Roman Catholic Community. This is our seventh year of operation, providing a grade 7 - 12 program for 330 students.

Edson is a bustling community on the Yellowhead highway about 200 kilometres west of Edmonton. Coal mining, forestry, and oil and gas exploration are the key employers in this resource-based town. Holy Redeemer was completely renovated and updated to provide students with a facility for a comprehensive high school program. Our Drama facility is considered the best west of Edmonton; our science labs are fully equipped to facilitate a rich science program; and our technology is state-of the-art. Education programs include: Alberta Education High School Diploma, Alberta Education Knowledge and Employability Certificate, and Special Education Individual Program Plans.
