CoyoteCare provides supervision for Lower School families needing childcare beyond regular school hours. Held in the Margaret Donnelly Lower School library and led by a qualified instructor, the program includes snacks, homework time, well-being activities, and outdoor play when possible.

The program runs Monday through Friday from 3:00–6:00 p.m., and on Late Start Wednesdays from 7:30–8:55 a.m. 

Crescent has a limited number of prepaid annual subscriptions for CoyoteCare at $3,300 (approximately $400/month), covering daily after-school care, Late Start mornings, and early dismissal days, such as for parent-teacher interviews. The expense qualifies for the federal Child Care Tax Credit. Families requiring after-hours supervision three or more times per week will see significant savings compared to the drop-in pricing option.

A limited number of drop-in students is permitted. Drop-in students must register in advance and receive a confirmation email indicating whether there is space available for the chosen date and time. Advance registration is required to ensure our staffing resources can accommodate demand.

The prepaid subscription program is now full. If you would like to be added to the waitlist, please contact Ms. Patricia Alviano (palviano@crescentschool.org) or Ms. Amy Joliat (ajoliat@crescentschool.org).

The Coyote’s Den campus store opens for back-to-school shopping on the following days:

Regular Den hours (Monday through Friday, from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.) begin on September 14.

Primary (Grades 1–3): Students will access classroom technology as required; devices are not issued for everyday use.

Junior (Grades 4–6): Students are issued Chromebooks for use at school. Personal computing devices from home are not required.

Students are required to bring their own computing devices to class. They may use the device of their choice—Mac, PC, Chromebook, tablet—for taking notes, working on projects with classmates, completing assignments, and doing homework. Any device with wireless capacity will work on Crescent’s system. We recommend a minimum of 8 GB of RAM and at least a 256 GB hard drive.

Students must bring their devices to school every day fully charged and ready for use throughout the school year. 

Boys must have laptop bags to transport their devices between classes. They do not have to be Crescent-branded; however, Crescent laptop bags are available for purchase in the Den while supplies last.

The School provides limited technical support for student-owned devices, such as assistance with connecting to the school network and basic troubleshooting. Families are responsible for the maintenance and repair of personal devices, including any hardware-related issues.

 

Middle School students will receive a lock, Duotang folders, and standard supplies for each class. These items and a student agenda will be charged to their Student Billing Account. Students entering Crescent in Grade 8 will receive a calculator and pencil case. A list of additional supplies will be issued to parents this summer. These items must be purchased before the first day of school. 

*UPDATED* Textbooks
Upper School students are required to have textbooks for courses beginning in September. These can be purchased online through The Batner Bookstore or from other sources if you wish. 

If you have questions about the Upper School textbooks, please contact the Assistant Head of Upper School, Academics, Mrs. Candace Harrison at charrison@crescentschool.org.

Every Crescent student is a member of one of six Houses: Cartier, Hudson, Wolfe, Mackenzie, Massey and Simcoe. Your son will be assigned to his House and receive his House tie on the first day of school. 

We try to assign boys to the same House as their other family members who currently attend, or previously attended, Crescent.

Fall athletic tryouts generally take place during the first week of school. Please refer to this webpage to see which athletic teams and intramurals are offered during each term. 

Soccer tryouts are scheduled for September 8. More information will be shared in the Back-to-School message in August.

Aspiring U13 Soccer and Basketball team athletes – Each year, our U13 D1 soccer and basketball teams participate in the CAIS national tournaments. These are great opportunities for the boys to compete with schools from across Canada and, when the tournament is in another city, travel as a team. Next year, the U13 soccer team will be playing in Vancouver from October 13 to October 16, with travel home by October 16. The U13 basketball team will be playing in Vancouver from January 28 to 31, with travel home by January 31. All members of the U13 D1 soccer and basketball teams must attend the CAIS tournament. Players who do not wish to attend the tournament may play on one of our other soccer or basketball teams.

Crescent has a robust selection of co-curricular activities to satisfy a wide variety of interests. Our Character-in-Action programs provide our students with authentic opportunities to develop character outside of the classroom. We have signature programs in athletics, arts, business, outreach and robotics, and many more. You can learn more about Crescent's Character-in-Action Programs on our website. 

SAGE follows a comprehensive allergen management program that covers everything from purchasing and deliveries to food preparation and service to ensure community members with food allergies feel safe and included. The daily menu can be filtered for 12 priority allergens (wheat, gluten, eggs, fish, milk, sesame, soy, shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts, mustard, and sulphites) and two eating patterns (vegetarian and vegan) to assist people with dietary restrictions.
