The Boundary
What the Board Says
The public board does not describe Unionville High School's boundary by neighbourhood name. Its boundary map, dated September 2026, shows the area, and its notes explain two places where students from other boundaries are held at Unionville HS.
For 2026-27, Unionville HS will no longer have an enrolment cap but remains closed to transfers. In practice, attending usually means living at an address in the boundary, or in one of the areas held there.
No listing, website or agent can confirm the school for an address. Only the board can. Run the exact address through the locator, open the boundary map, and call the school office.

Four Moves for a School-First Purchase
Four moves Michael John Lau uses with families buying near Unionville High School.
- 01
Confirm the address first
Run every address through the YRDSB School Locator before you book a showing, and again before you offer. Read the boundary notes for holding areas.
- 02
Plan for Arts Unionville separately
Living near the school does not mean a place in Arts Unionville. It is audition-based, and eligibility depends on the discipline and where you live.
- 03
Price from the street, not the school
Homes near Unionville HS vary from condos to estates. Michael prices from recent sales on the same street and type, as he did at 56 Ingleborough Court.

Time your move to registration
Registration needs original proof of residence, such as a purchase agreement with proof of closing. Line up your closing date with the school year.
