These documents can be emailed or presented in person at the school for copying.
Parents or guardians choosing to bypass Kindergarten for their child should note that the child will start in grade 1 the following year.

Catchment Areas
Before submitting your registration, please confirm the designated catchment school for your child using our Catchment Area Map. Students must attend the school within the catchment area where they reside. Exceptions are made using the Schools of Choice application process.
The catchment area for French Immersion is all of Portage la Prairie School Division, so if you live in Portage la Prairie or the Rural Municipality, you do not need to fill out a School of Choice Form. French Immersion registrations should be made to École Arthur Meighen (M-8ième) or Portage Collegiate Institute (9ième - 12ième), depending on the grade level.
