New Student Information

If you are a Grade 10-12 youth looking for an arts focused school, a safer space, community, flexibility, and/or a curriculum that reflects who you are, for SEMESTER 2 (Feb start) of the 2024-25 school year, intake meetings will happen in December and up until February 14th.

Please note that we do not offer senior sciences. We focus on the arts, humanities and english. We offer pathways to college and university.

Please start the process to book an intake meeting for registration by completing the following:

  1. Complete the Inglenook Intake Meeting Form.
  2. Send Anthony.Grandy@tdsb.on.ca the required documentation:
    • Credit counselling summary or transcript from your last high school
    • Copy of the IEP (if there is one). Note: Acceptance into the program may have to wait until the IEP is reviewed by our Itinerant Resource Teacher.
  3. After staff receive and review ALL documentation, and feel we can meet the student’s needs, we will reach out to arrange a virtual intake meeting using Google Meet or via a phone call. Legal guardian(s) and the prospective student must be on this call.
  4. Inglenook staff will send out acceptance emails and registration process in 2-3 business days after the intake meeting if we can provide the prospective student an academic program.

What are Intake Meetings?

The intake meeting is an opportunity for students, parents and guardians to meet staff and learn more about our program. It is also an opportunity for staff to learn more about the student and their needs. If staff is satisfied that Inglenook  is an appropriate space for the student’s academic success,  guardians/youth will be notified 2-3  business days after an intake meeting, and a registration paperwork will be sent.

If accepted to Inglenook we will need to see the documents listed below and a few forms will need to be completed.

  1. Birth certificate
  2. OHIP card
  3. Proof of address (e.g. Phone Bill, Drivers license)

If you are under 18, a caregiver should accompany you to the intake meeting if possible.

Before contacting us, please note that we have the following limitations at Inglenook:

  1. Students need to have their grade nine compulsory credits to apply to Inglenook.
  2. We can only enroll students under 21 years of age in the public school system. Click here to see a list of TDSB Adult Learning Centers
  3. Accommodations for learning challenges are limited due to the limited staff.  Extra time, alternative spaces and technology use can be accommodated.  
  4. A student that is new to the country and sometimes out of province needs to make an appointment with one of the Toronto District School Board’s Newcomer Reception Centers.  Please call 416-393-0560 to discuss the scenario.
