Application
Documents required for Enrollment
Once the Elementary Student Online Application for Registration (S.O.A.R.) application is complete, the parent/guardian must meet with the school in order to validate documentation. The following original documents are required when meeting with the school:
Child's Birth Certificate
Child's Catholic Baptismal Certificate
(or proof of parent's Catholicity or RCIA/RCIC letter)
Passport/immigration documents
(only if child was not born in Canada)
Proof of residency in Toronto
Important Note:
Parents of Toronto school-aged children must provide their child’s vaccination information directly to Toronto Public Health. Students without the required vaccines will receive notice asking for updated immunization information. For more information, please visit www.toronto.ca.
School Boundaries
Selecting a school
Within the S.O.A.R program, applicants will be directed to their community school which is based on the applicant’s residential address found within the school boundary.
If an applicant wishes to apply to a school outside the boundary of their community school, they will have the opportunity to make an out-of-boundary request on their application.
Please note that an application to any school, whether inside or outside the boundary, does not guarantee acceptance at the school selected. TCDSB will, however, make every attempt to identify a school where there is space and where the child may attend.
Please note that in line with our transportation policy, transportation/bussing is not guaranteed.
