Ottawa Carleton District School Board

Thursday, October 22nd, is the 20th anniversary of Child Care Worker and Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day. At the OCDSB we recognize the education, skills, commitment and dedication of child care staff and educators of young children.

We know that Halloween will look different in Ottawa this year, but we will still welcome ladybugs, superheroes, witches and monsters in OCDSB schools next week.

Today, the OCDSB is excited to share that the Government of Ontario has announced it will fund the construction of a new high school in Riverside South.

Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Abdirahman Abdi and the Black community who continue to grieve the loss of a loved one following today’s court decision.

We have been informed of a series of allegations relating to the school climate at Nepean High School. The allegations span a period of several years and involve both current and former students and staff. The allegations address issues of racism and inappropriate conduct of staff involving students.

We have been hearing your questions about COVID-19 and have assembled a list of questions and answers for you.

With so much emphasis on online learning, it is important for students to realize the responsibilities that are associated with the internet.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board is proud to announce the launch of our new Indigenous, Equity and Human Rights Roadmap - 2020-2023.
