For verification of your catchment area school, please call the School Board Office at 604.952.5340 or check the School Locator.
If a parent wishes for a child to attend a different school other than their catchment area school, a non-catchment application form should be completed and submitted to their catchment area school. Schools will hold non-catchment forms until approved by the Assistant Superintendent. Approvals will be processed as soon as possible, but may be held until the second week of September, therefore, parents should register their child at their catchment area school to ensure a placement. No approval of non-catchment requests may be given at the school level.
Non-district students applying for Kindergarten in Delta must complete a non-district application form and submit it to the requested school. Schools will forward this form to the Assistant Superintendents' Office. Parents of non-school district students should be advised that a decision regarding entry into the Delta Kindergarten program may not be made until the second week of September, therefore, should register at their catchment area school to ensure a placement. The Assistant Superintendents' Office will notify each school of the successful non-school district applicants. Once the school has received approval from the Assistant Superintendents' Office, non-school district students may then register at the designated school.
Non-catchment and non-district applications will be accepted commencing February 1, 2012 and will receive priority in the respective category if received prior to March 9, 2012.
