North Trail High School is a high school with an enrolment of approx. 1800 students in grade levels 10–12 in Coventry Hills, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The school is part of the Calgary Board of Education's public school system.

History

The school had been planned for almost a decade before beginning construction, with students living in this area of the city having to go to schools several kilometer south such as John G. Diefenbaker High School and Crescent Heights High School, which could have up to a 50 minute travel time.[1]

School construction started in 2021, and was completed in July 2023. The school opened for students on August 31, 2023.

Originally given the placeholder name of North Calgary High School, the official name was announced by the Calgary Board of Education Trustees on April 7, 2023, after consultations with a local First Nations elder. [2][3] The grand opening ceremony of the school was held in April 2024.
