Local Kindergarten Registration dates announced

Kindergarten registration for the Upper Grand District School Board is just around the corner.

Registration for new JK and SK students for September 2020 will take place at the child’s home school from January 7-17, 2020.

The process for Kindergarten registration begins online. Parents and guardians can fill out forms by pre-registering online or they can prepare the proper documentation at the school.

Once they’ve pre-registered online, parents/guardians must go into their child’s home school in order to drop off documentation and complete their registration.

All UGDSB schools that offer French Immersion at the Junior Kindergarten level have an enrolment cap. All parents/guardians wishing to apply for JK French Immersion must have completed their application by January 17, 2020 at 4 p.m.

For more information on the JK FI application and selection process, visit www.ugdsb.ca/jkfi.

English Track families can pre-register their child online starting January 7 as well, and there is no window for ‘on-time’ registrations, however, English Track families are reminded to bring in their documentation within two weeks of registering.
