Kindergarten Registration at
Dufferin-Peel Catholic Schools
Catholic schools in Ontario have been an important
part of the education system for more than 150
years. Many of you have been educated in Catholic
schools and have enrolled your own children in the
Catholic school system. The vitality of publicly
funded Catholic education depends on the ability of
our Catholic schools to attract Catholic families to
register their children in these schools. With this in
mind, we encourage parents to consider enrolling
their children in their local Catholic school and give
them the added value that comes with a Catholic
Christ-centered education.
Jr. and Sr. Kindergarten registration for the 2011-12
school year will be held at all Dufferin-Peel Catholic
elementary schools on February 7 from 7:00 p.m. –
9:00 p.m. and February 9, 10 and 11 from 9:00
a.m. – 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
For more information, contact your local Catholic
elementary school, visit www.dpcdsb.org or call
(905) 890-1221.
