Normal School was a teacher-training school in Edmonton. Normal Practice School is where teachers from Normal School gained experience (mirroring a contemporary student-teacher field experience). The Practice School and the Normal School occupied the same building from 1930 to 1940. The facade of the building (Corbett Hall) is 259 feet long. The north (the Normal School) and the south (the Practice School) wings were each 165 feet.

When the building was used by the RCAF from 1941 to 1945, the Normal School moved to schools in the Garneau area. Normal School was staffed by Edmonton Public Schools, with a principal and certified teachers and students enrolled just like any other Division school.
