(through merger of several school boards) (educational management office) 1 Vanier Drive, Welland, Ontario, L3B 1A1 (business and financial office) Kristine Dandavino Marcel Tikeng Jounda Pierre Gregory David Paradis Éric Lapointe Stefania Sigurdson Forbes Anna-Karyna Ruszkowski Yvon Rochefort Emmanuelle Richez David O'Hara 41 elementary schools 16 high schools The Conseil scolaire Viamonde (CSV) is a public-secular French first language school board, and manages elementary and secondary schools in the Ontario Peninsula and the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The school board operates 41 elementary schools and 16 secondary schools within that area. The school board operates two offices, one in Toronto, and one in Welland. The educational management office is located in the Maple Leaf neighbourhood of Toronto, whereas the business and financial management office is located in Welland.

The school board was formed in 1998 after several local school boards were amalgamated into the French-language Public District School Board No. 58. From 1999 to 2010, the school board was known as Conseil Scolaire de District du Centre-Sud-Ouest. CSV is one of four members of the Association des conseils scolaires des écoles publiques de l'Ontario (ACÉPO).

History

Educational management offices for ''Conseil scolaire Viamonde'', in Toronto.

The board was created 1 January 1998 when the Government of Ontario decided to amalgamate several secular French school boards in the Ontario Peninsula (an area made of Southwestern Ontario, and the Greater Golden Horseshoe). School boards that were amalgamated included:

Secular French school boards merged into CSV	Number of schools operated in 1997
Conseil des écoles françaises de la communauté urbaine de Toronto	5 elementary schools
2 secondary schools
Conseil scolaire de Niagara Sud	5 elementary schools
1 secondary school
Conseil de l'éducation du comté de Simcoe	3 elementary schools
1 secondary school
Conseil de l'éducation de la ville de London	1 elementary school
1 secondary school
Conseil de l'éducation du comté de Lambton	1 elementary school
1 secondary school
Conseil de la ville de Hamilton	1 secondary school

Shortly after the merger, the school board changed its name from French-language Public District School Board No. 58 to Conseil scolaire du district du Centre-Sud-Ouest. The school board continued to operate as Centre-Sud-Ouest until November 15, 2010, when its name was changed to Conseil scolaire Viamonde.

In 2011, the school board announced its intention to buy a number of unused Toronto District School Board buildings; in order to do so, it has to use funds from the Ontario's Ministry of Education. After the government denied the funding, the board then announced plans to file a lawsuit against the provincial government.
