Kindergarten 

Kindergarten students will begin their school year on September 1, 2021. 

Morning kindergarten students will be assigned their homeroom teacher on Tuesday, September 7, 2021. Delaying class assignment allows teachers and education assistants the opportunity to get to know students well before assigning them to a compatible class and teacher.  

Since there is only one afternoon kindergarten class, students will be assigned their homeroom on September 1, 2021.

There will be no mid-day bussing. 

Kindergarten students riding the school bus will be met at the bus and escorted into the school. At dismissal, he/she will be escorted outside and put on the bus by a teacher or an education assistant.

Teachers will meet parents and children outside the school near the playpark doors (southeast doors, close to Canterbury Drive.) Teachers will greet the children and accompany them to the kindergarten classrooms. More details with regards to health and safety protocols will be communicated on August 27, 2021.

Transportation continues to accept registrations after the deadline; however, students are added to the closest existing stop with available space. Processing times could be up to six weeks at the beginning of the school year due to volume.

More information about 2021-22 transportation service levels and proposed fees are posted on the CBE website.
