2022-2023 Optional Attendance Guidelines


Unfortunately, we were deemed CLOSED to the Out of Area Application process so they will NOT allow us to consider ANY out-of-area SIBLINGS nor any out-of-area cohort members from your grade 8 classes.

Our OPEN HOUSE will be an exercise to ensure those from within our catchment area are motivated to stay in their address pathway and NOT opt for other programs and/or schools.
