Students, families, and staff of all gender identities and expressions have the right to feel physically and emotionally safe, welcomed and accepted at school and in the wider community.

From October 18-22, the OCDSB and our partners at the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association (OPSBA) are raising civic awareness by observing Local Government Week.

October 15th is Canadian Library Support Staff Appreciation Day

At the OCDSB, we are so grateful to recognize the education, skills, commitment and dedication of child care staff and educators of young children.

In response to some misinformation circulating on social media relating to the OCDSB Committee of the Whole Meeting on October 12, we felt it was important to clarify the District’s position on school based vaccine clinics.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board and the Ottawa Catholic School Board are hosting Launch 2021, a virtual post-secondary education opportunities event for students in Grades 11 and 12, and their parents and guardians. This two-day virtual event, being held on October 21 & 22, 2021, is a great opportunity for students, parents and guardians to explore post-secondary pathways.

The OCDSB has 12 elected trustees and each trustee represents one electoral zone. These zones must be based on the City’s ward boundaries.

In 2020-2021, the OCDSB conducted separate consultations concerning policies regarding Safe Schools and Police Involvement in Schools.

The OCDSB Fall 2021 Virtual Tutoring Program provides students with a supervised opportunity to complete, review, practice and receive support in a range of subject areas.
