Check Your School Support
Property owners in Ontario are required to support a school board, even if they do not have children. Where a residential property is tenanted, the tenants can direct the school support for the property. By default, school support is directed to the City’s English Public School Board.
The Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) collects school support information. To learn more about school support, visit the MPAC website. Property owners, occupants, and tenants can update their school support designation online using the school support designation tool.
