Halton District School Board hosts board-wide interactive Secondary School Open House Event on Sept. 26
Sept. 14, 2026 - On Saturday, Sept. 26, 2026, the Halton District School Board will host a board-wide, interactive Secondary School Open House at Craig Kielburger Secondary School in Milton (1151 Ferguson Dr, Milton).
This event is designed to help students in Grade 6–10 and their families explore the full range of opportunities available across HDSB secondary schools, including programs and pathways, academics, athletics, clubs, community and support and student life.
This year’s open house will also feature representatives from the new Oakville secondary school, opening September 2027, which will be home to the HDSB’s first regional sports program, the Academy for Athletic Performance and Excellence.
This is not just an information session. It’s a celebration of what makes the HDSB vibrant and unique. With hands-on activities, student-led booths and real-time engagement, this event will be fun, inspiring and a powerful first connection for future secondary students.
“This Open House is all about giving students and families a firsthand look at the vibrant possibilities waiting for them in HDSB secondary schools,” says Curtis Ennis, Chief Executive Officer of the Halton District School Board. “Whether exploring unique pathways, discovering new passions or connecting directly with our dedicated staff and student leaders, this interactive day is designed to inspire confidence as students take their next big steps.”
To help ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all families, those interested in attending are asked to complete the registration form, including a preferred attendance time slot. Parking is free but limited, and time slots will be assigned on a first come, first served basis.
Parents/guardians with questions about the HDSB Secondary School Open House or secondary school in the HDSB can learn more by visiting the Secondary School Open House webpage on the HDSB website.
