Hi!study Not really. Unfortunately, the law in Alberta doesn't require public schools to provide services to homeschooling families. The public school system in Alberta is not obligated by law to make available some services to homeschoolers in Alberta. The individual school districts and schools make this determination and you should contact them before May 1. These services can include: participating in events, groups, or athletics upon prior permission by the local school board to confirm availableness. Upon confirmation by the local school board, the homeschooled student is allowed to participate in extracurricular activities such as physical education, band and drivers ed which may be available in specific school districts. You may want to browse the following page which contains very helpful guidance on Alberta homeschool laws and regulations:

Greetings, Not under Alberta law but several school services could be accessible to homeschooled children in Alberta. Some services may be available if the school district gives you access to it.

Hey there, Regrettably, no. By law, homeschooled children aren't automatically given access to some school services in Alberta. Some services may be available to students if your local school permits it. You should probably take a look at this page which lists specific information regarding what is required to homeschool in Alberta:
