SUMMER SCHOOL 2026

  • HWDSB’s summer school registration opens on March 2, 2026

Timetable Support for Semester Two Closes February 3 at 3:00 pm

If you require a timetable change due to one of the reasons below, please log into your HWDSB account and follow this survey link.

Reasons for semester two timetable support requests:

  • failed a semester one course
  • missing a pre-requisite for graduation
  • missing a pre-requisite for your pathway (apprenticeship, college, or university)

NOTE:

We are pleased to announce that we have processed over 700 changes since last year’s original course option process. We are confident that most students have everything they need to graduate and pursue their preferred pathways. We are not inviting students to request timetable changes for the following reasons:

  • a different teacher
  • the same class but at a different time
  • the same class but via e-Learning
  • a change of heart with respect to an elective (i.e. drop Art, add Drama)

NOTES ON E-LEARNING:

  • All e-Learning classes are closed for semester two

Repertoire Music

Students who choose to participate in Concert Band are encouraged to register for Repertoire (AMR1O1, AMR2O1, AMR3M1, or AMR4M1). Repertoire is an additional course that takes place before the school day. Its’ inclusion allows students the opportunity to earn a 9th credit for their Concert Band activities.
