York Region District School Board (YRDSB) is one of Canada’s leading providers of public education, offering a comprehensive range of programs and services, highly skilled teachers and a shared commitment to excellence in learning.

We strive for equity, inclusiveness and diversity in all of our programs and practices. The Board is committed to enabling all students to learn and grow to their full potential in environments that welcome differences and are free from discrimination.

As the Third largest and the fastest growing school board in Ontario, the Board operates a public school system comprised of 194 schools with an enrollment of 113,000 students and more than 10,00 staff members. There will be 20 more new schools added between 2007 and 2010.

In province-wide testing our students have consistently performed well above the provincial average. EQAO results place York Region students among the top-achieving boards in Ontario. We believe this is due to a unique combination of students who are prepared and motivated to succeed, teachers who are skilled in helping students learn, strong educational leaders who subscribe to a common vision of excellence, and a supportive community that understands the importance of quality public education. We believe that all students can learn and we are committed to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to experience success.

We are committed to the exploration of new opportunities to learn and grow, not only in our own school district, but also through the exchange of information, ideas and experiences with communities across the world.

Students are invited to experience a range of leading edge educational programs that will enrich their learning and enhance their global awareness.
