Location from The City of Calgary open data. Grade range from Alberta Education's 2025/26 school enrolment data — the grades this school actually has students in. Authority: Maria Montessori Education Centre of Calgary, Ltd.. Grade ranges, programs and catchment boundaries are set by the school authority and change year to year — I will confirm the current details with the board for any address you are serious about.

Fun fact: The school's home is the old Chief Crowfoot School, built in 1955. At its opening, Chief Joe Crowfoot presented a portrait of his grandfather. In 1967, students painted a 40-by-70-foot map of Canada on its courtyard.

Provincial exam results

How Maria Montessori School performed

Published by Alberta Education. Exam results measure one thing about a school and say nothing about class size, programs, staff or fit — and they are not a reason on their own to buy in a catchment.

Provincial Achievement Tests — 2025

Grade 6 and Grade 9 tests (regular courses; K&E excluded), all subjects combined and weighted by the number of students writing at this school (71 test writers). Ranked #44 of 319 Calgary schools with 2025 PAT results.

Reached the standard of excellence35.2%+17.0 vs Alberta 18.2%

2025 was the first year the Grade 6 English and Math PATs used Alberta’s new curriculum. Alberta-wide, Grade 6 results dropped (English 90% to 80%, Math 77% to 61% at the acceptable standard, compared with 2023). Grade 9 results were close to past years. Compare 2025 results with other 2025 results, not with earlier years.
