The Lancaster team ensures that exceptional care and thought are put into every child’s class placement. Throughout May and June, staff work together to thoughtfully consider each child’s placement, including academics, peer groups, learning dynamics, and individual strengths and needs.
Should families have information they feel is important for us to consider when placing their child, they are invited to submit remarks or requests to Ms. O'Hearn at ohearns@limestone.on.ca While requests cannot be guaranteed, family input may help support the decision-making process. We ask that all requests are submitted by May 29th. Teacher assignments will be shared the last week of June.
Kindergarten Registration and Out of Boundary Registration
Do you have a child ready to start Kindergarten this September? If your child is four- or five-years-old by the end of December (2026), now is the time to register. Limestone offers Kindergarten in both English and French Immersion—where 85% of instruction is in French—plus a strong focus on the core skills of reading, writing, and math. With greater choice in schools and future programming, your child can discover a sense of belonging, while learning the knowledge and skills they need to succeed. For more information, please visit limestone.on.ca/kindergarten.
In Limestone, students may be permitted to attend any school within the board when there is available student space, upon submission and approval of the proper application. Please note only one application per student can be processed; please do not submit more than one application for multiple school locations. If multiple applications are submitted, families will be contacted to select which school application they would like processed, and all other applications will be removed from the system.
The board is not responsible for the provision of any transportation for students outside of their regular school boundary area. This applies to both students within Limestone’s geographic boundaries (out of boundary), and students who live outside of those boundaries (out of district).
To find the name and location of your in-boundary or home school(s), enter the student’s home address into Tri-Board's Locate A School tool.
