Ottawa Public Health requires proof that your child has received proper immunization. All children attending school in Ontario must be immunized against diphtheria, tetanus, polio, measles and rubella, unless there is a valid exemption.

The OCDSB has a strong commitment to equity and inclusive education. These principles are embedded in the learning environment and are important drivers in choosing relevant learning resources that speak to our students and help them feel accepted and valued.
