At the Regular Board Meeting held on September 23, 2019, the Durham Catholic District School Board of Trustees approved, in principle, boundary changes between Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School and Monsignor John Pereyma Catholic Secondary School. This Boundary Review is being conducted in accordance with Board Policy PO415 School Boundary.
