Community, school & catchment

Is Rural Ancaster the same as its school?

No — three things share the Rural Ancaster name and it’s worth keeping them separate. The Rural Ancaster community is the MLS® neighbourhood (how listings are grouped), while a same-named school has its own attendance boundary.

A school’s catchment can include homes outside the MLS community — and not every home in Rural Ancaster is necessarily assigned to the same school. Because boundaries are drawn by the school board, the only reliable way to know a home’s school is to check the specific address.
