School Registration

Register a New Student.

Online registration must be completed on a laptop, desktop computer, Chromebook, or full-size tablet using the blue Request an Account link. Online registration is not available on mobile phones or small tablets.

If you are unable to register online, complete the PDF Registration Form and bring to your school.

If you have attended a KPR school previously, and are now returning to KPR, please complete the pdf registration form. Once completed, please gather the documentation required and contact the school to arrange a visit to provide the items.

If you would like your child to attend a school other than the one designated for your home address, you will need to fill out the Student Transfer Request Form. Schools are only able to take out-of-boundary students if there is space left after they accommodate students within their own boundaries.

This Questions and Answers document explains the process for requesting that students attend a school other than their home school.
About the Student Transfer (Out of Boundary Request) Process  

It is important to note that some schools are closed to out-of-boundary requests because there is no available space, and staffing capacities have been reached.

Student Transfer Request Form

As a final step, once registration is confirmed, parents/guardians will need to visit the school to provide the following information:

• Birth certificate
• Immunization Record
• Proof of address
• Citizen verification
• Custody documents (if applicable)

Immunizations for School Attendance

Ontario's Immunization of School Pupils Act (ISPA) requires that children and adolescents attending primary or secondary school be appropriately immunized against designated diseases unless they have a valid exemption. Every time a child receives an immunization by a health care provider, parents and/or guardians must report immunizations to your regional Public Health Department.

Within our student registration form, there is a section providing an opportunity for a student or a family with Indigenous ancestry to voluntarily participate in our self-identification program. This program is part of our commitment to implementing the Ontario Ministry of Education's First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework.

We are committed to supporting success for Indigenous learners by increasing awareness of the learning styles of students and increasing all staff and students' understanding of First Nation, Métis, and Inuit cultures, histories, and perspectives.

If you have questions regarding this voluntary self-identification component of our registration, please contact Colleen Honey by email or at 705-742-9773 or toll-free at 877-741-4577, extension 2602
