Do you have a child born in 2012?
Kindergarten registration starts on
November 1st
-------
All Kindergarten
applicants are required to submit an application to their English catchment
elementary school. This includes families
who wish to apply for choice programs (French Immersion, Montessori, etc.) and/or
a cross boundary placement.
The priority
registration period for Kindergarten opens on Tuesday November 1st and closes at 4 pm on Tuesday January
31st. Students who submit an application within this
priority period will be accommodated before late applicants.
If your
child was born outside of Canada, you need to report to the VSB District Reception and Placement
Centre (DRPC) and
complete the initial Kindergarten application there.
In a few
Vancouver schools there may be more in-catchment applicants than the school can
accommodate. For those schools,
applicants who applied within the priority registration period (November 1 to January
31) will be included in a draw for available spaces. Students with siblings already in attendance
at the school (and who will be attending next year) will be placed prior to the
draw.
When
registering your child please bring:
Vancouver School Student Application.pdf along with the following:
1. Proof of residence in Vancouver
2. Child’s birth certificate
3. Immigration documentation (if
applicable)
4. Immunization records
If you want
to apply for a Choice program or cross-boundary, you must first apply to
your English catchment elementary school. Applications for Choice programs and cross
boundary placements will be accepted in early 2017, but only after you have
registered at your catchment school.
