On November 24, 2008, the Waterloo Region District School Board approved a boundary study for the Preston area.

Schools involved in this boundary study include:

  • Parkway P.S.
  • Preston P.S.
  • Grand View P.S

 


 

UPDATE

GRAND VIEW P.S. RECONSTRUCTION CONTINUES – BOUNDARY CHANGES SET FOR SEPTEMBER 2012

Please be advised that all approved boundary changes will not take place until September 2012. This allows for construction at Grand View P.S. to be completed prior to introducing additional students to the school.  Only students entering Grade 6 in September 2012 and living in the area being moved from Preston P.S. to Grand View P.S. will be offered the option of remaining at Preston P.S. for their final year.

The following recommendation was approved by the Board on February 28, 2011:
 “That the Waterloo Region District School Board change the Preston P.S. Junior Kindergarten to Grade 6 boundary by moving the area bounded by the Grand River, Hwy #401 and the Cambridge-Kitchener City limits as outlined in the report, dated March 9, 2010, to Grand View P.S. (Cambridge) with a revised effective date of September 1, 2012 and that only students entering Grade 6 in September 2012 and living in the area being moved from Preston P.S. to Grand View P.S. be offered the option of remaining at Preston P.S. for their final year”
