​​​​​​​​​​What School is Next and Transferring Between CBE Schools

Every CBE student has a designated school based on their home address. When you transition from elementary to middle school, or from middle school to high school, you will be automatically registered at your designated school according to your home address. To find your designated school, use our Find a School tool. 

​If you are interested in attending a school other than your designated school, visit the Transfers webpage for transfer information. Please note that some schools are quite full and not able to accept all transfer requests. ​


April is Sikh Heritage Month in Canada. It’s an opportunity to celebrate Sikh culture and recognize the contributions of Sikh Canadians in our communities. #WeAreCBE https://t.co/wyktEMZNuA
