GUELPH – Kindergarten registration for the Upper Grand District School Board is just around the corner.
Registration for new junior kindergarten (JK) and senior kindergarten (SK) students for September 2021 will take place virtually between Jan. 5 and 22.
The process for kindergarten registration is fully virtual this year and parents and guardians are required to pre-register their child online.
Once pre-registered, parents and guardians are asked to contact their child’s home school to make a virtual appointment to verify documentation.
Registering online can be done at www.ugdsb.ca/kindergarten, between Jan. 5 and 22.
The online pre-registration process allows families to fill out the pre-registration form when it’s convenient for them.
If parents and guardians require assistance or do not have access to technology, they are asked to contact their child’s home school.
Once parents/guardians have pre-registered online, contacted their child’s home school to arrange a virtual appointment, and verified documentation with the school, the registration is complete.
All UGDSB schools that offer French immersion (FI) at the JK level have an enrolment cap.
All parents/guardians wishing to apply for JK French immersion must have completed their pre-registration and FI application by Jan. 22 at 4pm, in order to be considered “on time.”
For more information on the JK FI application and selection process, visit www.ugdsb.ca/jkfi.
English track families are asked to complete their registration during the registration window.
Currently all registrations for the 2021-22 school year are for in-person learning.
At this time, the UGDSB does not know whether or not an option for remote learning will be available, but it is important that parents/guardians register their children early so the school board can best project staffing needs for September 2021.
