Saunders is our tech emphasis school. Check out the links posted below as well as the linked application to submit the applicable application and to view deadlines. In this program, students can explore a variety of hands-on course options as outlined in the link below. Students from the Mountsfield area may attend Saunders on two different circumstances:
1) Attending the Tech Emphasis program. Because this program is our dedicated Tech Emphasis school, acceptance into this program is guaranteed. Bussing is also provided to the school through this program so long as the student's residence is more than 3.2 km from the school.
2) Attending Saunders as an out of area student. If you are still interested in attending Saunders but not interested in the technology program, you are welcome to apply as an Out of Area student by submitting the application on the "Out of Area Applications" tab by the listed deadline. Through this option, students are not guaranteed admission and bussing will not be provided.

NOTE FOR OUT OF AREA STUDENTS
We are incredibly proud of the experience that ALL of our TVDSB secondary schools provide students, and your home school is your best option for a school community ready to support you and help you succeed.
If you are considering applying to a secondary school other than your designated home school you must contact that secondary school to request a registration package. Complete the registration package and get your Guidance Lead Teacher to help you complete course selections for your chosen school(s), in addition to your home school. Please note that it is the parents/guardians responsibility to submit the "Out of Area" information to the Secondary School by the deadline.
There are a couple of things you need to keep in mind if you are requesting to attend a secondary school other than your home school, or your designated French Immersion or Emphasis Technology school (referred to as an “out-of-area” school):
Students interested in attending an out of area secondary school must apply to be permitted to attend. Out-of-area applications will only be considered once all in-area students have been registered and accommodated.
Even if you do get admitted to an out of area school, you will NOT be provided with transportation to that secondary school. You and your family will have to make sure that you have your own way of getting to school if you are attending any school other than one of your designated secondary school.
