Class Placements for 2025 - 2026

• The objective of the class placement process is to ensure classes are balanced in gender, number, student academic diversity, and social dynamics, to name a few factors. We undertake this process in consultation with your child’s current team of teachers, social worker and learning strategist. We also believe that students have the ability to adapt to new social groupings, and are part of the developmental process. 

• At this time we welcome friend requests or insights to your child's learning style needs for students entering grade 7 and 8.

• We do not accept teacher requests or exclusionary requests for students. As well, we do not accept any requests for students entering grade 9. At this stage of their development, the school believes the skills of adapting and meeting new peers is an important life skill.

• In grade 9, students will be placed into a core Integrated Canadian Experience (ICE) group (English, History, Geography, Civics) and the class composition will be varied in the other 4 subjects (PE, Science, Math, Arts) of a student's timetable.

• All class groupings will be communicated during the last week in August before the first day of school via the release of the timetables on YorkNet. Please complete this form by April 14, 2025. Given the lengthy class placement process, late submissions will not be considered.
