Understanding Hamilton's School Boards

Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB)

The public board operates over 100 schools across Hamilton, including many well-regarded elementary and secondary schools on the Mountain. Notable Mountain schools include Westdale Secondary (home to an International Baccalaureate program), Mountain View Public School, and Green Acres Elementary. Public schools are open to all students regardless of religion.

Hamilton-Wentworth Catholic District School Board (HWCDSB)

The Catholic board operates elementary and secondary schools across the city. Popular Mountain options include St. Clare Catholic Elementary, Cardinal Heights, and Bishop Ryan Catholic Secondary School. Catholic schools generally require proof of Catholic baptism for enrolment priority, though non-Catholic students may be accepted if space permits.

French-Language Schools

Hamilton is also served by two French-language school boards: Conseil scolaire Viamonde (public) and Conseil scolaire catholique MonAvenir (Catholic). These schools offer immersive French-language education and are an excellent option for bilingual families.
