Getting a place at ÉÉC Saint-Nicolas
Attendance zones do the sorting here. Inside the zone a child is in; outside it, the answer turns on how full the school is.
Ontario’s Catholic boards are publicly funded. Their elementary schools generally ask that a parent or the child be Catholic; their high schools are open to all students.
Eligibility comes from the parents: French as a first language, or French schooling in Canada; otherwise, the board’s admissions committee decides.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.
