13. September 2017  St. Kateri Tekakwitha School – Dual Track (English & French Immersion)  St. Pius X School – French Immersion  Deshaye Catholic School - English Deshaye Catholic School

14.  St. Kateri Tekakwitha is projected to open with an enrolment of 310 students (160 English and 150 French Immersion)  École St. Pius X is projected to have 475 students  Deshaye Catholic School is projected to have 300 students

15.  As of September 11, 2015, 296 out of 425 students attending Deshaye School were bused to school, leaving 129 students that get to school by other means. Deshaye students living within the current proposed St. Kateri boundary are bused to Deshaye and would be bused to St. Kateri with no anticipated change to the current busing complement.  As of September 11, 2015, 388 out of 523 students attending St. Pius were bused to school, leaving 135 students that get to school by other means. St. Pius students living within the current proposed St. Kateri boundary are bused to St. Pius and would be bused to St. Kateri with no anticipated change to the current busing complement.

18.  With new boundaries created for St. Pius, Deshaye and St. Kateri schools, transferring bused students to St. Kateri will realize bus requirements to a different school/location with similar or shorter bus routes  Given the number of students attending Deshaye Catholic and St. Pius from Harbour Landing, it is possible that bus routes may be eliminated at the time St. Kateri opens.

19.  School boundary changes would result in: ◦ providing busing to students within the respective school boundaries ◦ grandfathering St. Pius and Deshaye students who wish to remain at their respective schools but will not be eligible for busing if they reside in the St. Kateri boundary ◦ making a busing exception for the St. Pius and Deshaye Grade 8 (Deshaye-15 and Pius-31) students who would receive the option of busing, even though they are out of their respective boundaries  If St. Pius X receives Ministry approval to rebuild, it will become the French Immersion school for the area with St. Kateri offering only English programming
