Community, school & catchment

Is Alton the same as its school?

No — three things share the Alton name and it’s worth keeping them separate. The Alton community is the MLS® neighbourhood (how listings are grouped), while Alton Village Public School is a specific school with its own attendance boundary.

A school’s catchment can include homes outside the MLS community — and not every home in Alton is necessarily assigned to the same school. Because boundaries are drawn by the school board, the only reliable way to know a home’s school is to check the specific address.
