Little Rouge to hold Grand Cornell students
Adapted from the CVPS Newsletter
March 1, 2007 – With the Ministry's implimentation of the 'hard cap' for all Primary classes next school year (JK-G3) and the continuing growth of the Cornell community, it is going to be necessary to reduce the expected school population of Cornell Village Public School by an additional 75 students in order to appropriately accommodate the students (approximately 40 will also be graduating).
It has been decided that the students who reside in Grand Cornell will attend Little Rouge Public School beginning September 4, 2007. There are no plans to build a new school in the Grand Cornell Community in the near future. Fortunately, Little Rouge PS will be opening with a smaller population of students and will have ample room within its building to accommodate the Grand Cornell students for the foreseeable future. Bus transportation will continue.

The Little Rouge Public School
Upper Cornell’s elementary school is scheduled to open in September 2007 – 63 students from Cornell Village Public School will be attending. The school’s name, Little Rouge PS, was chosen. In the public release, York Region District School Board described their decision as: “Despite its name, Little Rouge Creek is anything but small. It is the second longest watercourse in the over 250 kilometer-long Rouge River system which is home to Rouge Park, the largest urban park in North America. Rising in the Oak Ridges Moraine in Whitchurch-Stouffville, the Little Rouge winds its way south through a small rural landscape of forests, wetlands, farms and old fields, into the Park in eastern Markham, before joining the Rouge River just north of Highway 401 in Toronto.”
