Parkwood Hills Public School Transition Plan

On May 27th, 2008, the Board approved the Merivale Area-South of Baseline Elementary Accommodation Study, along with a Project Charter and overall accommodation study timelines. This study was led by an Accommodation Review Committee (ARC), which completed school valuations and review accommodation options for the schools in the study. The ARC makes recommendations that include boundary changes, program changes, amending grade structures or school closures.
The goal of the study is to arrive at recommendations to Board that make the best use of our facilities and resources, while enhancing the provision of high quality learning environments and superior programming for all students.

At a special meeting of the Board, on January 26, 2010, the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board voted to close Parkwood Hills Public School effective September 2010. This decision comes after months of comprehensive review, public consultation, and committee deliberation.
Students residing in the Parkwood Hills Public School attendance boundary (less the area to be directed to Meadowlands Public School) will attend Sir Winston Churchill Public School for JK – 6 EFI, excluding the area to be directed to Meadowlands Public School.

Students residing in the Meadowlands Public School attendance boundary will attend Meadowlands Public School for EFI and for SK – 5. A Grade 6 EFI will be added in school year 2011-2012.

Decisions such as these are always made with the best interests of students in mind and in alignment with our goal to improve student achievement and are not taken lightly.

Trustees and Staff are now focusing their efforts on ensuring a smooth transition for the students, their families, and the greater school community.
