School Programs offered by the OCDSB in Ottawa Zone 1 Rural West (Goulborn, Rideau, West Carleton)

Parents enrolling their children in Ottawa-Carleton District School Board elementary schools in Goulbourn, Rideau and West Carleton have a number of program choices available to them. In addition to the Regular English program, there are three French immersion programs, beginning at Senior Kindergarten, at Grade 4, or at Grade 7. All of these programs are available to students from Goulbourn and West Carleton; Rideau-area students do not currently have access to the Middle French immersion program (Grades 4-8).

South Carleton High School and West Carleton Secondary School offer the full range of compulsory courses for Grades 9 to 12, as well as a good selection of elective courses to complete the requirements for the Ontario Secondary School Graduation Diploma, including French immersion programming. The Frederick Banting Secondary Alternate Program located in Stittsville serves highly motivated students who, for a wide variety of reasons, need programs with a degree of flexibility that is not normally available in a regular secondary school.

Special education support is available for students who are identified as having special needs. Many students can be well served through the Special Education Resource Teacher or Special Education Learning Centre in their local school. Students whose needs cannot be met in the local school may be directed to more specialized classes in schools outside their home community, in which case transportation is provided.

English-as-a-Second-Language support is provided on an as-needed basis for students whose first language is not English.

Please access information on programs offered at each school in Zone 1, through the menu above, under Rural West Public Schools. For more detailed information on specific programs, please access the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board web site through the menu above, under OCDSB Information.
