Transportation, Parking, and Getting Here

The district transportation department provides school bus service across Central Okanagan and requires families to submit an online transportation application; students must be registered on a route to ride and will be issued a bus pass that must be scanned when boarding/exiting. Families are encouraged to follow school bus rider rules and safety guidance (for example: arrive at the stop 10 minutes early, remain seated, and only cross in front of the bus when red alternating lights are flashing and the driver signals it is safe). Transportation fees are managed through School Cash Online, and payment plans and subsidies (fee waivers) may be available through the district.

Enrollment

Central Okanagan Public Schools provides a district enrolment process: families are directed to find their catchment school, watch the enrolment application tutorial, and complete an online enrolment application. After applying, families must provide required documentation (such as proof of age/citizenship and proof of B.C. residency/address) to the school; certain immigration statuses may require processing through the district Welcome Centre before an application can be completed.
