Kindergarten Registration
Kindergarten registration is in full swing. Some schools have seen a significant number of early registrations. We encourage all parents of children who will be 5 years old by December 31, 2023 to register now for kindergarten. In some cases late registrations may need to be placed at another school. Don’t wait to register!
Reporting Policy Framework – Changes for 2023-2024
The framework linked below provides an overview of the upcoming changes to the K-12 Student Reporting Policy. This policy is set to be implemented for the 2023-2024 school year. This framework aligns student reporting with the redesigned curriculum and provincial assessment system. The work is the result consultation and engagement with rightsholders, education partners, teachers, parents, caregivers, students, and the public over the past several years.
The Ministry of Education and Child Care will be working with a team of teachers and administrators to collaboratively construct resources for educators, parents, caregivers, and students. You can see what is changing and what is staying the same at
