    REGISTRATION

    NEW STUDENT REGISTRATION

    Pollard Meadows School is full in planned classes in Kindergarten to Grade 6 in the Cogito program for the 2022-2023 school year.

    REGISTRATION PROCESS

    *2023-2024 Pollard Meadows will now have closed boundaries for the regular program only.*

    For schools with closed boundaries - this does not apply to the Cogito program at Pollard Meadows:

    • students currently attending the school may remain at the school
    • new students who are resident students and live in the school’s designated attendance area can enrol
    • siblings of current students will be accepted, as long as:
      • both siblings will be attending the school next year, and
      • both students pre-enrol before the deadline of April 14, 2023

    After pre-enrolment closes at 4 p.m. on April 14, 2023, only resident students who move into the school’s attendance area will be able to attend a closed-boundary school.

    Non-resident students can attend another Division school that has space in planned classes.

     

    Children who are five years old on or before December 31, 2023 may register in Kindergarten for the 2023–24 school year. For more information about Kindergarten eligibility please click here.

    Registration for students new to the Division, including Kindergarten, begins February 1, 2023. Parents can go to EPSB's registration page to access the forms.  Pre-enrollment for current EPSB students will continue to indicate their school choice for next year through SchoolZone beginning March 6, 2023. The deadline for pre-enrolment is April 14, 2023 at 4pm.

     

    OPEN HOUSE

    Kindergarten Open House for both Cogito & Regular programming will be on February 2, 2023 from 5:00-5:30pm.

     

    COGITO KINDERGARTEN 'MEETINGS FOR SUCCESS'

    All Kindergarten applicants interested in the Cogito Program will be required to participate in a 'Meeting for Success'. This is an opportunity for prospective students to engage in age-appropriate tasks presented in a Cogito setting while being observed by the teachers. School Administration will use the evidence and observations collected during the ‘Meeting for Success’ to engage parents in a conversation about the child’s readiness for the expectations and demands of the program. These meetings are an important way to connect with our new families and students, and this connection is vital to student success in the Cogito program.

     

    Pre-enrol in SchoolZone 

    Get ready for the 2023–24 school year! Sign in to your parent SchoolZone account between March 6 and April 14 to select your child’s preferred school for next year. 

    Whether your child is staying at the same school or changing schools, all students need to pre-enrol. Knowing how many students to expect helps schools prepare to welcome them in September.

    If you need help, contact the school or read the PreEnrolment Parent Info 2324

Principal's Message

Welcome to Pollard Meadows School

Welcome to another fabulous school year!  I am honored to be principal at Pollard Meadows.  Our staff have worked hard in preparing for this in-person year.  I am sure that you will be impressed with the commitment from our staff to ensure that each and every child is successful.  Your child will be engaged in innovative and joyful learning experiences.  They will be shaped into global citizens, ready to embrace opportunities for continuous growth and leadership.

We will strive to meet the needs of every child’s growth socially, emotionally and academically.  This work will be ongoing and intentional.  We will continuously use data collected from a variety of assessments in order to move students forward to ensure we are delivering the best learning experience and interventions possible.

You are invited to be an active community member through classroom volunteering, joining our School Council (no experience needed), or with special events at the school.  Please feel free to speak to your classroom teacher to see which opportunities will best suit your schedule.

Please be sure that you are familiar with SchoolZone.  All newsletters and progress reports will be posted online.  If you require assistance, please stop by to visit our friendly and helpful office staff: Amanda Crites and Celyne Vandermey.

I look forward to a year of successful learning and teaching, and to meeting all of you in-person!


Yours in partnership,

Mrs. Cindy MacDonald
Principal
