Schools by neighbourhood
Which schools serve each neighbourhood.
Many neighbourhoods are split between two or three school catchments, so here are all the options for each one. It shows you which schools you might be looking at, but only the exact address tells you which one applies.
West Kelowna school catchments
More than one school means different streets go to different schools. The school listed first covers the most homes in that neighbourhood. Very small pockets, under 2% of homes, are left out. Neighbourhoods run from west to east, in the same order as my neighbourhood map.

Kelowna school catchments
The same list for Kelowna, using the MLS® sub-area names I use in The Kelowna Report. "Rutland area schools" means Belgo, Pearson Road, Quigley, Rutland, South Rutland and Springvalley Elementary, which share one catchment area on the district's map.

Before you choose a home for its school
Enter the exact address in the Central Okanagan Public Schools catchment maps, then call the school if a spot matters to your decision. Catchments can change and some schools fill up. French immersion has its own catchments, which aren't on this page, and the district says transportation is only provided to a student's English catchment school.
I can't tell you which school is best for your family, and this page doesn't rank them. But if you're weighing up neighbourhoods, I'm happy to talk it through. Book a consultation, or see my guide to moving to West Kelowna.
Common questions
Does living in a neighbourhood mean my child goes to the school listed?
Not necessarily. Your catchment school depends on the exact address, and many neighbourhoods are split between two or more catchments. Enter the address in the Central Okanagan Public Schools catchment map before you buy.
Why does my neighbourhood show more than one school?
Catchment lines don't follow neighbourhood names. More than one school means different streets in that neighbourhood go to different schools. The school listed first covers the most homes.
What does Rutland area schools mean?
The district's map shows one shared catchment area for Belgo, Pearson Road, Quigley, Rutland, South Rutland and Springvalley Elementary. Call the district to find out which school applies to your address.
Which school district covers West Kelowna and Kelowna?
Central Okanagan Public Schools, School District 23, covers both.
Is French immersion on this list?
No. French immersion has its own catchments, which you can check on the district's map. The district says transportation is only provided to a student's English catchment school.
Can a school catchment change?
Yes. Districts can change catchments, and a school can be full. Confirm with the school district if a particular school matters to your decision.
Catchments are English-program catchments from the Central Okanagan Public Schools interactive map, checked by eye against the district's 2026-27 printed elementary map. I compared them with my approximate neighbourhood boundaries using civic address points from the City of Kelowna and City of West Kelowna, contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence. Westside Road and Joe Rich are mostly outside those address records, so they're based on the map alone. This is a general guide, not a catchment confirmation, and it isn't to be relied on for a specific property. Independent and francophone schools aren't included. École de l'Anse-au-Sable is a francophone school in Kelowna.
