Immunizations for School Attendance

Ontario's Immunization of School Pupils Act (ISPA) requires that children and adolescents attending primary or secondary school be appropriately immunized against designated diseases unless they have a valid exemption. Every time a child receives an immunization by a health care provider, parents and/or guardians must report immunizations to your regional Public Health Department.

Within our student registration form, there is a section providing an opportunity for a student or a family with Indigenous ancestry to voluntarily participate in our self-identification program. This program is part of our commitment to implementing the Ontario Ministry of Education's First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework.

We are committed to supporting success for Indigenous learners by increasing awareness of the learning styles of students and increasing all staff and students' understanding of First Nation, Métis, and Inuit cultures, histories, and perspectives.

If you have questions regarding this voluntary self-identification component of our registration, please contact Colleen Honey by email or at 705-742-9773 or toll-free at 877-741-4577, extension 2602
