The deadline to update your school support designation through the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) was June 1, 2026. You can still review your current school support information online. Check your school support designation online.

Whether you own or rent your home, your property is linked to a school board - even if you don't have children or your children aren't currently attending school. You're not required to make a designation, but you do have the option to choose which school board you support. If you don't make a choice, your support will default to the English-Public school board.

If you didn't receive your Voter Information Letter in the mail, your information may be missing from the Voters' List or need to be updated.
