Cross-Boundary Requests
Parents are asked to register their child in their boundary school. Cross-Boundary Requests allow parents to request to send their child to another school located outside of the boundaries of a given school (in other words, the territory served by a school). This transfer request is made to the Department of School Organization, which will review it individually before submitting a recommendation to the General Directorate.
- Review the Cross-Boundary Policy;
- Fill out the Cross-Boundary application form and return to the School Organization Department by fax at 819 684-9061 or email at cross-boundaries@wqsb.qc.ca;
- Parent or guardian will be required to complete a Temporary Authorization Request form if the family moves onto the territory of a different school during the school year, in order to allow the child to remain in the same school for the remainder of the school year.

Derogation Parent Information Evening
An information session on the derogation process (early admission to school) for parents of 4-year-old children who may be eligible for the 2021 Fall Kindergarten Program was held on January 25 at 7:00 p.m. via zoom.
The following questions were addressed:
1. What is derogation?
2. Who is eligible to apply for derogation?
3. What are the requirements for qualifying for derogation?
4. What constitutes “school readiness” for Kindergarten?
5. Why does my child need a psychological assessment to complete the derogation application?
6. How do I apply?
A brief question and answer period followed. Parents were strongly encouraged to attend the Parent Information Evening before deciding to apply for early admission to school. Please note: this session did not address the Special Education Derogation Process.
