    1. Westminster Woods Public School, Sir Isaac Brock Public School, and Rickson Ridge Public School be redirected from Centennial to the new high school; 

    2. The new school opens with grades 9 and 10 with approximately 470 students in 2026; and 

    3. No schools be redirected from either GCVI or John F. Ross CVI to Centennial CVI; and 

  2. That staff be directed to bring a report to the Finance and Facilities Committee on Guelph secondary school enrolment following the completion of all program reviews and further that staff be directed to not limit themselves only to options which follow the feeder school model.
