REGISTRATION INFORMATION
Families need to register through your catchment school. To find your child’s catchment school, use our school locator tool
If you require translation assistance to help with registration, the District’s Settlement Workers in Schools department will be offering presentations in multiple languages. See information here.
As you are aware, the Willoughby Slope area is a fast-growing neighbourhood, and with growth comes challenges for our schools in fulfilling enrolment. Our school and district staff work diligently to prioritize and find placements for students living in each catchment. When that is not possible, due to school capacity, our staff work with our neighbouring schools to find placements for students at other school sites that have spaces available in the relevant grade level.
We understand these circumstances greatly impact our families. As a system, we are doing our best to minimize the disruption on our students and families. We assure you all our schools on the Willoughby Slope have staff that are loving and caring educators who create healthy, safe, and positive learning environments for all students.
“In the event that the District may not be able to accommodate a catchment student within the catchment school, the student will be placed on a ‘School Placement List’ prioritized by date and time of application. The District will accommodate the student at a neighbouring school until such time as space is available.” (Policy No. 7008)
