The HDSB Mobile App consolidates important information for parents/guardians and students into one easy-to-access location. Report absences, receive school and Board news, social media and calendars all in one place. Download the free app on the App Store or Google Play by searching “Halton District School Board” or “HDSB”. 

During the app setup process, users will be prompted to “subscribe" to individual schools. This means parents/guardians can customize their news by choosing (tapping) which schools they would like to receive information from, in addition to updates from the Halton District School Board.

Through a simple tap of the app, users have access to a series of icons containing helpful and timely information and resources, such as:

• Reporting student absences

• School news and calendar feeds

• Transportation information and updates

• School Cash Online

• Notifications about school closures and bus cancellations

• Access to school and Board news including media releases, school stories and videos

• Links to Board and school social media pages

• All school contact information including maps to schools

As we head into cold and flu season, we'd love to share a simple way your school community can support local children while stocking up on an everyday essential.

One of our Food4Kids Halton volunteers created Wicked Wipes after his daughter became seriously ill. His mission is to help prevent the spread of germs by providing individually wrapped sanitizing wipes that are easy to keep in backpacks, lunch bags, purses, and cars.

Available for $34 per 50-pack, Wicked Wipes are a practical way to prepare for cold and flu season while supporting the more than 1,200 local elementary school children who rely on Food4Kids Halton each weekend for healthy food.

From September 18 to October 18, every purchase through this campaign helps support local kids. If you’re able, we would be grateful if you could share this campaign with your school community through your newsletter or parent communications.

Purchase Wicked Wipes here:
