Irma Coulson Public School (Milton SE #7 ps) Boundary Review
A Boundary Review Process was initiated for the Milton SE #7 ps in southeast Milton. The new school was planned to open in the 2013/2014 school year. The Boundary Review Process included the review of possible boundary options for the new school as well as the program offerings, i.e. French Immersion.
