Back-to-School Forms

Dear parents/guardians,

Each year, we ask all parents/guardians to complete important back-to-school forms. 

The back-to-school forms can be found in the family dashboard at family.yrdsb.ca. Click on the arrow by your child’s name, select the back-to-school forms button and choose your language.

Please follow these steps for each child. Forms will automatically populate with your child’s information through the Family Dashboard.

Learn more about how to create a Family Dashboard account if you do not have one. 

The back-to-school forms are also available online at https://startupforms.yrdsb.ca. You will need your child’s student number. Tips are available on the Board website. Translation is also available on the website. 

Frequently asked questions and additional information on how to complete the back-to-school forms are available on the Board website under Family Resources (click on the “Need Help” link for Back-to-School Forms. 

 It is important that these back-to-school forms are completed as soon as possible at the start of the school year. There are both mandatory and optional forms. The forms are to be completed for all students. Your child's school will access the information. 

 Please complete a separate form for each child attending our schools. 

Secondary school students will also be asked to review important school and Board policies and to indicate that they have reviewed this information on forms sent to their student GAPPS account.

If you prefer to complete the back-to-school forms on paper or have questions about the information in the forms, please contact your school office.

 School Year Information

At the start of the year, schools share with families a package of information about the school. Please ensure you review this important information. Families are also encouraged to review the online Guide to the School Year

Thank you.
