How to direct your tax support

Ratepayers have the opportunity to declare and/or revise their school support designation through the Application for Direction of School Support under the Assessment Act. 

This information is used to direct your school taxes; to prepare voters' lists for municipal and school board elections; and to help with municipal and school board planning.

When you designate your tax support for English public schools, you are sending the government a message that you support the only fully inclusive school board in Ontario.
