Clara Hughes Public School Boundary Review

Durham District School Board proposes to adjust the existing enrolment boundary between Clara Hughes Public School (CHPS) and Village Union Public School (VUPS).  For the 2023-24 school year, it is proposed that all JK to Grade 7 students residing north of Olive Avenue and west of Central Park Blvd. South would attend Village Union PS (VUPS) instead of Clara Hughes PS (CHPS).

Durham District School Board provides an opportunity to gather feedback from students, parents/guardians, DDSB staff and the community on the proposed boundary option for Clara Hughes PS (CHPS) through the Public Consultation Process.

Donald A. Wilson SS Boundary Review

Donald A Wilson Secondary School has a Regular program boundary as well as a French Immersion (FI) program boundary for all Whitby students.

With both Regular and FI programs being offered at Donald A Wilson SS, the school has experienced sustained enrolment pressures for the past few years. In addition, growth within the school’s existing boundary areas has increased enrolment pressure. Over the past two years, the pandemic and the option for virtual learning has provided some relief to the in-person learning enrolment allowing enrolment to be accommodated on site.

As of October 31, 2021, Donald A Wilson SS had a total enrolment (in-person and virtual learning) of 1,797, with a Ministry Rated Capacity (MRC) to accommodate 1,375. This puts the school’s current capacity utilization rate at 131%, which is unsustainable.

We are asked our community to provide their input and share their feedback about Donald A Wilson’s boundaries.
