Lisgar, Mississauga

Schools Serving Lisgar, Mississauga

Lisgar was built out as a family subdivision over the 1980s and 1990s, which means several elementary schools sit within or adjacent to the community, generally within a short walk or drive for most homes.

Public Schools — Peel District School Board

Peel District School Board elementary schools serve pockets within and around Lisgar, with secondary students in this part of west Mississauga typically attending high schools serving the broader west-Mississauga catchment. Some PDSB schools in the area offer French Immersion — confirm current eligibility and your home's specific boundary directly with the board at peelschools.org.

Catholic Schools — Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board

Families seeking Catholic education have elementary options within and adjacent to Lisgar through the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board, feeding into Catholic secondary schools serving west Mississauga. Confirm current boundaries directly at dpcdsb.org.

Official Ways to Verify a School Boundary

Beyond contacting the boards directly, the Government of Ontario maintains an official school locator at ontario.ca/page/find-your-school, where you can search by address to confirm which public and Catholic schools currently serve a specific home. This is the most reliable starting point before making an offer based on a school assumption — real estate listings and general neighbourhood guides are not authoritative on boundaries.

Parks and Recreation for Families

Lisgar has its own neighbourhood park, Lisgar Fields, next to Lisgar Middle School, with soccer fields, a baseball diamond, tennis courts, and a playground. Families should know, however, that Lisgar does not have its own dedicated community recreation centre or library branch. The nearest full-service option for both is Meadowvale Community Centre and Library at 6655 Glen Erin Drive — a short drive rather than a walk for most Lisgar homes. Families who rely heavily on drop-in recreation programming or library visits should factor that trip into their day-to-day routine.

What Parents Should Know

• Boundaries are drawn street by street. Because Lisgar was built in multiple phases over two decades, homes that look similar can fall into different school boundaries. Always confirm with PDSB (peelschools.org) or DPCDSB (dpcdsb.org) before assuming.
• Walking distance is common but not universal. Some sections of Lisgar are close enough to walk to an elementary school; others require a bus.
• Older building stock. Because the community was built mostly through the 1980s and 1990s, some school buildings here are older than those in newer west-end subdivisions like Churchill Meadows.

Tips for School-Focused Homebuyers

If a specific school is the reason you're buying in Lisgar, confirm the boundary for the exact address before writing an offer. A local agent familiar with the community's phase-by-phase boundaries can help narrow your search to qualifying streets.

Disclaimer: School boundaries and ratings can change. Always verify directly with the school board before making a decision.
