January 5, 2024 - OCDSB Indigenous Languages Survey, Events, and more.
Hello Students,
I would like to take this opportunity to wish all of our students, staff and school communities of the District a wonderful new year. I hope that the calendar year of 2024 brings happiness and health, peace and prosperity to each and every one of you!
A reminder that all students will return to class on Monday, January 8, 2024.
OCDSB Indigenous Languages Survey
We want to preserve and celebrate the languages of First Nation, Inuit, and Métis students in OCDSB. To do so, we will be asking Indigenous students (grades 7-12) and parents/caregivers to participate in our Indigenous Languages Survey. Your answers will help us create effective plans to support language revitalization actions in the OCDSB. The survey will be shared with Indigenous students and families on January 8th, 2024.

Calendars and Planning for Important Dates
Please consult the OCDSB’s Elementary and Secondary calendars for PA Days, holidays, exam dates, and more during the 2023-2024 school year. In addition, schools avoid scheduling activities like evaluations and field trips on certain religious/creed-based days of observance.
