The area’s school research covers the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board (English public), Ottawa Catholic School Board (English Catholic), Conseil des écoles publiques de l’Est de l’Ontario (French public), and Conseil des écoles catholiques du Centre-Est (French Catholic). A nearby school is not automatically the designated school: confirm address, grade, program and admission eligibility directly with the relevant board.
Catchments change. Being close to a school does not guarantee a place there. Boards set catchments by address and program, and they change them. Confirm the designated school for a specific address with each board before you buy.
