What to check on a home near Terry Fox Public School

The streets closest to an elementary school are steady sellers because a new set of families arrives each year wanting exactly that walk. Around Terry Fox Public School that steadiness shows in how quickly a well-priced house goes, so decide on your ceiling before the showing rather than at it. Look at the route on foot: the crossing on KERRISON DR, where the sidewalk ends, how the school's pick-up loop spills onto the side streets at three o'clock. Ask a neighbour where their children go, since a house on the wrong side of a boundary street can be a surprise. The band above shows how many homes are for sale inside the circle today and their middle asking price; the list below is the live inventory with the nearest homes first.

If I buy within 1.5 km, is my child guaranteed a spot at Terry Fox Public School?

No guarantee comes with distance. The Durham District School Board assigns each address to a school by boundary, and boundaries are redrawn as neighbourhoods grow. Most homes this close are inside the catchment, but the only safe answer is the board's current map for the specific address, checked before you sign.
