Attendance Boundary Decision:
New Fernbank High School Temporary Accommodation Plan
On November 28th, the Board of Trustees approved the New Fernbank High School Temporary Accommodation Plan that will take effect in September 2024.
Here is a brief summary of the recommendations:
Beginning in September 2024, students living in the St. Bernadette and St. Martin de Porres attendance boundaries will be directed to All Saints High School until the planned new secondary school is opened in Fernbank.
Current Holy Trinity or Sacred Heart students in grades 7-11 who live within the St. Bernadette and St. Martin de Porres attendance boundaries will be provided with a one-time option to remain at those schools. Students choosing this option will remain designated to attend those schools and eligible for transportation, subject to meeting OSTA criteria.
For more details, please see the map containing the approved revised secondary school boundaries and the Board report containing the recommendations.
