Grade 7 Parent Information
We are extremely excited to welcome your son/daughter to our school for September, 2025! We look forward to working with your family as you likely have a number of questions about the transition to Grade 8. We are planning for the coming school year to ensure a smooth transition from elementary school for your child.
On Thursday, January 23rd, we have scheduled an in-person Program Planning Information meeting and Showcase Night at 6:30 pm.
During the Information meeting portion, you will have a chance to hear about the options available for your child at Boyd. You will also learn about our IB Middle Years Program, and our Incentive Program, all of which are designed to offer students an enriched learning experience.

Our counsellors will visit all grade 7 feeder schools between January 20 - 23, 2025 to give students information about Boyd and Grade 8 course selection.
