Registration

Our school district works to create safe, caring and supportive learning environments so that all students can be successful. Our elementary schools are configured from kindergarten to grade 5, middle schools from grade 6 to grade 8, and secondary schools from grade 9 to grade 12.

Registration Dates

There are no set deadlines to register your child in any one of the district's schools, although please note the following:

Enrolling your child in kindergarten? Kindergarten registration for the next school year takes place during the first week of February each year. Children can register for kindergarten in the year that they turn five years old. Registration for kindergarten in September 2024 starts the week of January 29 to February 2. Families should register by May 13 to secure their space in their neighbourhood school.
New to the district? Please contact your neighbourhood catchment school to arrange a time during the school day to register. New students who arrive over summer break will be able to register when the school offices re-open the week before the first day of school.

District Programs

The Campbell River School District offers a variety of educational opportunities for students.

French Immersion

Early French Immersion is offered at two district elementary schools and students are assigned to a school depending on the availability of space. Once the school year has started call the school board office at (250) 830.2300 to inquire which French Immersion elementary school has space. For middle school (grade 6 to 8) student registrations, contact École Phoenix Middle School to register. For secondary (grades 9-12) student registrations contact Carihi Secondary School.

eBlend

Parents interested in having their child learn at home have the option of eBlend (K-9). Unlike homeschooling, our eBlend program is teacher supported. You can get information on our eBlend program by calling (250) 923.4918.

Alternate Programs at Robron Centre

Parents/guardians who wish to register their child at a program at Robron Centre will need to make an appointment with the counsellor to discuss the student's learning needs and to determine the most appropriate program to meet those needs. New registrations will be accepted as long as there is an available program, space and staff resources appropriate for the student. Contact Robron Centre at (250) 923.4918.

International Student Program

Campbell River School District welcomes international students in our school system for social, cultural and educational enrichment. For more information on the district's international student program, visit the program website.
