Ottawa Carleton District School Board

Hello Students, Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which honours and remembers the over six million Jews murdered and countless other victims of the Holocaust. At the OCDSB, it is our obligation to educate, prevent, challenge and address antisemitism in all its forms.

Dear Students, Resources to Help You Take Care of your Mental Health Knowing this can be a stressful time of year for many students, the OCDSB’s Youth Action Committee on Mental Health (Y.A.C) has compiled a few resources to help students find support.

Hello Students, A Reminder about Post Secondary Scholarships If you have plans to attend college or university, remember to visit our website to explore the scholarships and bursaries that are available.

Hello Students,  I hope you had a nice Winter Break. On behalf of everyone at the school district, I wish you a very Happy New Year. The start of a new calendar year is often a time for reflection, renewal and new beginnings. 

Hello Students,  As we head into the winter break, we hope you are able to enjoy some much needed rest and relaxation. Please remember that all OCDSB schools and administrative buildings are closed on Friday, December 23 due to the incoming winter storm. We look forward to seeing all our students back at school on Monday, January 9, 2023.

In the coming weeks many families in our OCDSB community will be celebrating holidays or marking important occasions together. We would like to send our warmest wishes to all who will be observing these and other celebrations throughout the winter holiday season.

The Ottawa-Carleton District School Board stands against antisemitism. We are aware of the vile, antisemitic statements and messages targeted at Trustee Nili Kaplan-Myrth. Many of these statements have included antisemitic slurs, epithets, threats of harm, aggression, and in some cases, illegal activity. This is unacceptable and inexcusable.
