Grade 8s

Dear Parents/Guardians of Grade 8 students:

We are very excited to welcome you and your child to Greater Fort Erie Secondary School! 

If you are new to DSBN or new to the GFESS boundary, and not yet registered at GFESS, please click here to access the GFESS Registration link.

Dear Grade 8 students:

We are looking forward to you joining our school as a new Gryphon! You might be wondering, "What courses will I be studying in Gr. 9?  How do I select my course requests?"

Gr. 8s who are new to DSBN complete a Course Request form which is emailed out by our Guidance department after all registration papers (including a most recent transcript/report card) have been submitted to, and approved by, our administrators.

After Open House week, current Grade 8 DSBN students work with their classroom teachers to complete their Course Plans for the 2025-2026 school year, online, through the DSBN’s “Xello” website.
