Walk with us at the 2025 Capital Pride Parade

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (OCDSB) will be participating in the 2025 Capital Pride Parade, taking place on Sunday, August 24, 2025.
In previous years, hundreds of OCDSB students, staff and families walked or rode the yellow school bus, demonstrating our commitment to creating safer and more accepting spaces.
We encourage everyone who can to join us on August 24th, as we march together to celebrate diversity and promote inclusivity.
Please check the Capital Pride website for updates, parade route and festival events throughout the week (August 16-24).
Participants are encouraged to wear rainbow accessories and come prepared for the weather (water, sun protection & walking shoes).
