The Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board (SWLSB, French : Commission scolaire Sir-Wilfrid-Laurier, CSSWL) is a school board headquartered in Rosemère, Quebec in Greater Montreal.

Contents

It officially came into existence in July 1998 when English-language schools from eight former school boards were amalgamated. Laurenval School Board, Laurentian School Board and Laurentienne School Trustees were merged, and the English sector of the other school boards of the Laval, Laurentides and Lanaudière administrative regions joined to form the new administrative entity.

The Sir Wilfrid Laurier School Board is the third largest Anglophone school board in the Province of Quebec, Canada.

Service area

The service area, over 35,000 square kilometres (14,000 sq mi) large, [1] includes the City of Laval and the Laurentides and Lanaudière regions. [2]

Wards 11-19 serve portions of Laval. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]

Administrative facilities

The board's head office is in the Administrative Centre on Montée Lesage in Rosemère, next to Rosemère High School. [22] The board's Educational Services/Complementary Services Centre is located in Rosemère High School near the gymnasiums, adjacent to the administrative building. [23]

The district previously had its headquarters in the Duvernay area of Laval. [24] Prior to its use as a headquarters, the facility was an elementary school. In 1999 the school district announced it was moving the headquarters to Rosemère, stating that the building is out of compliance with safety codes and was too small. The cost for the Rosemère facility was $2,250,000. Some parents at the time argued that the district should have used the money to improve transportation. [25]

Schools

This school board oversees 30 elementary schools, 9 high schools, 4 adult and vocational centres, in which over 15,000 [26] students are enrolled.
