Where to Find OCSB Notices, Calendars, and Important Dates

Updated

The Ottawa Catholic School Board (OCSB) publishes notices and key dates directly on its homepage at ocsb.ca. The Notices section lists developments that may affect a school community, and a Calendar link sits alongside the main navigation shortcuts (Calendar, Portals, Register, Careers). If you need to know about attendance procedures, proposed school boundaries, or a PD Day, the homepage is the starting point — but always confirm the specific date or arrangement on the site itself, since posted items can be updated.

What the Notices section covers

Notices are framed as "developments that may affect your school community," and the homepage shows a running list with dates. Examples visible on the page include:

  • Attendance Support Program Procedure (Sep 30, 2026)
  • Public Meeting to Discuss New OCSB Elementary School (Redpine Dr) Proposed Attendance Boundary (Sep 28, 2026)
  • Friday, October 2nd – PD Day: Elementary Schools (K-6) and Intermediate and Secondary Schools (7-12) (Sep 23, 2026)
  • Performance Appraisal for the Director of Education/CEO (Jul 31, 2026)

Each entry has a Read More link, and a See All Notices option leads to the full list. This is where procedural changes and one-off schedule changes (like a PD Day) are announced.

Where the calendar and registration links live

The homepage places four quick links together: CALENDAR › PORTALS › REGISTER › CAREERS ›. Use Calendar for the board's schedule of events and dates, and Register when a notice points you to a registration window. The homepage also highlights time-sensitive registrations, such as:

  • International & Indigenous Languages Program (Elementary and Secondary): Register Now
  • It's Time to Register for Kindergarten 2026-2027 School Year

How to stay current

  1. Open ocsb.ca and scan the Notices list for items dated most recently.
  2. Select See All Notices to check anything older than the homepage preview.
  3. Use the Calendar link for scheduled dates and events.
  4. For questions, the homepage lists a contact line: 613-224-4455 ext. 7376 and [email protected].

Because notices are posted with specific dates and can concern boundaries, procedures, or schedule changes, treat the website as the authoritative source and re-check before acting on any date.
