In the case where a kindergarten or school age child is suspended from a Hamilton-Wentworth District School, the child will not be allowed to attend the Umbrella program until the school suspension period has ended. This action is dictated by the Education Act, which stipulates that a student is not permitted on school property while suspended. The Umbrella and school staff work as partners and endeavor to support each other in these difficult situations.

Please note that fees are still required during the term of suspension.
