Director’s March Break Message to the Community
Dear DDSB Families,
I trust you have all recovered from losing an hour in the “spring forward” time change last weekend. The good news is that the time change brings longer evening sunlight and an optimistic signal that Spring is on the way. The imminent warmth of spring brings to mind the warmth that emanates from friends and communities that are observing or celebrating significant moments in their faith at this time of year. For some of you this is a time of fasting, sacrifice and reflection and for others, celebrations with family, friends and community are before you. I hope you will find fulfilment and peace in your observance in whatever form it takes.
At this time of year, we look forward to our students completing their programs and planning transitions for the summer or the new academic year. If you have a child turning four (4) or five (5) before the end of December 2026, now is the time to register for Kindergarten to ensure all the necessary paperwork is taken care of with your home school before the summer holidays. Please use the link below to access the Kindergarten registration information. Additionally, information for Elementary and Secondary summer school opportunities for students is available by clicking the Durham Continuing Education link below.
Thank you for your ongoing partnership, your feedback, and care. I hope you will enjoy a safe, restful, and refreshing March Break.
Take good care of yourselves and each other,
Camille Williams-Taylor
Director of Education
Durham District School Board
