2026-2027 School Updates

A Few Updates for September

Uniform Footwear

• Beginning in September 2026, students may wear shoes of any colour as part of the Assumption uniform. Students may choose sneakers or dress shoes.
• All footwear must have a closed back for safety. Birkenstocks, Crocs, slippers, sandals, and other open back footwear are not permitted. This also applies on Civvies Days.

New Portable Classrooms

• Assumption continues to grow. To make room for our increasing enrolment, four new portable classrooms will be added at the back of the school. They will be located close to the main building and will provide additional classroom space for our students.

New School Hours

• Beginning in September 2026, the Assumption school day will run from 8:10 a.m. until 2:10 p.m. This change will help align transportation services with the Halton District School Board and Halton Student Transportation Services.
• Transportation schedules will be shared as they become available. Questions or concerns about student transportation should be directed to Halton Student Transportation Services through the HSTS website.

Changes to Lunch Periods

• Beginning in the 2026 to 2027 school year, lunches will no longer be assigned by grade. Students in Grades 9 through 12 may have lunch during either Period 3 or Period 4, depending on their timetable.
• This change gives the school more flexibility when building student timetables. It will also make it easier to offer mixed grade and specialty courses and provide students with more course options connected to their interests and pathway goals.
