History
[edit]The Wellington Catholic District School Board is the successor to the Wellington Catholic Separate School Board (French: Conseil des écoles séparées catholiques de Wellington), which was established in the mid-1960s when it operated English and French schools. In 1998, after the Fewer School Boards Act of 1997 was passed, the boards became as follows:
- The English-language Separate District School Board No. 48[7]
- The French-language Separate District School Board No. 64, which evolved into Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud
English-language Separate District School Board No. 48 became known as the Wellington Catholic District School Board in 1999.
Program
[edit]Wellington Catholic provides education from junior kindergarten to grade 12.
The board also provides early literacy programs to support children in grades 1 through 3. Full day kindergarten is available at all elementary Catholic schools.
