- Current School: select the school the student is attending in 2015/16 (e.g., Edna Staebler PS or Cedarbrae PS)
- School Information, First Choice (Home School): Select “Vista Hills PS” from the drop-down if the student does not have an older sibling already in French Immersion. If the student has an older sibling registered in French Immersion, select the school where the sibling is attending.
