The Durham Catholic District School Board looks forward to welcoming your child to school in September 2025! Please note that our elementary schools are closed from Wednesday, July 2, 2025 - Friday, August 15, 2025. They will re-open on Monday, August 18, 2025.
We encourage you to register your child as early as possible, to ensure they are adequately programmed for, and to ensure a smooth transition in Fall 2025.
Step 1
Visit OSAS.dcdsb.ca enrol your child through the online application process. You can create a new parent account or log into an existing account. If you would like to find the designated school in your neighbourhood, please use our school locator tool.
Step 2
Once your online registration is completed, the board will be in contact with you to arrange a time to verify the following documentation to complete your child's registration:
- Proof of age (Baptismal Certificate/Birth Certificate / Birth Registration or Passport);
- Proof of Religious Denomination (Baptismal Certificate of child or parent/ guardian); and
- Health Records (Immunization, allergies, etc.)
Step 3
The board will process the registration accordingly once the required documents have been verified. You will receive an email to confirm your child has been admitted to the school. Our elementary schools re-open on Monday, August 18, 2025, and will be in touch prior to the start of the school year with any further details.
