Inside the catchment · housing read
QAS doesn't tie housing to a specific catchment — students come from across Coquitlam and beyond, with All Saints Parish boundary families getting admissions priority. For families seeking continuous Catholic education K → 12, the QAS → Archbishop Carney pipeline is one of the two main CISVA pathways in the Tri-Cities (the other being Our Lady of Fatima → Archbishop Carney). Housing decisions can be made independently of school choice — focus on neighbourhood fit.
