Notes on Translation
The electronic translation service on the York Region District School Board's website is hosted by Google Translate. The quality of the translation will vary in some of the languages offered by Google. Google Translate is a free service and currently offers translation in over 50 languages, although an impressive number, this does not capture all languages or dialects. The basic translation’s goal is to capture the general intention of the original English material.
The York Region District School Board does not guarantee the quality, accuracy or completeness of any translated information. Before you act on translated information, the Board encourages you to confirm any facts that are important to you and affect any decisions you may make.
The York Region District School Board is committed to parent, family and community engagement, and it is our hope that by providing this tool on our website that we are making our information more accessible to families whose first language is not English and thereby enabling better engagement in public education.

School Registration
French Immersion registration will take place from January 15 - February 5, 2021
For the 2021-22 school year, a French Immersion
(FI) pre-recorded information session will be available on January
14, 2021. FI registration will begin January 15, 2021.
Registration is not first-come, first-served. In order to streamline the
registration process, parents or guardians of Senior Kindergarten students
entering Grade 1 in 2021, and wishing to enroll in the FI Program,
can email or call their
home school office (where your child currently attends) and declare
their intention to register in FI.
Late registrations are those submitted after February 5,
2021. Late registrations will be treated on a first-come, first-served
basis and will be considered subsequent to registrations received during the
registration period should overflow be necessary.
Families registering students who do not currently attend a
YRDSB school will need to complete full registration paperwork at their
designated FI school by booking an appointment:
Beynon.fields.ps@yrdsb
or (905) 508-7060. Information required for registration includes:
- Proof of child’s age
(Birth Certificate/Passport)
- Any legal documents
related to custody arrangements if applicable
- Proof of Residency of
the student - two documents, one from each of the categories below showing
the home address;
- Category A - notice of
tax assessment, current rental/lease agreement, agreement to purchase
including proof of purchase provided before the pupil attends the school,
or property tax bill, and
- Category B - utility
bill, bank statement or other official document.
YRDSB’s FI Accommodation Plan provides long-term consistency and equity of
access to all students in York Region and will enable YRDSB to continue
to offer the FI program to all who wish to enroll. The FI program will be offered in Dual
Track or Single Track settings, in a variety of configurations. In order
to meet community needs and optimize available space in our schools, a
community's Grade 1-8 FI program may be provided over more than one school
during the course of a student's FI education. This will allow flexibility
in addressing community needs and the opportunity to use existing space in
schools. Please note: Some of the FI accommodation plans will require
facility modifications or the development of new schools and will require
short-term transition plans that might include overflow while we work toward
the long-term vision. Overflow refers to situations in which the Board
directs students to attend a school other than their community school or
optional program for a specific period of time, as defined in Policy #108.
French Immersion Virtual Information Session will be available on Thursday January 14, 2021. Information and link to be provided shortly. |
