École secondaire Calixa-Lavallée

École secondaire Calixa-Lavallée is a secondary school in Montréal-Nord, Montreal, Quebec, operated by the Commission scolaire de la Pointe-de-l'Île (CSPÎ).[1]

As of 2009 some students were recent immigrants from Haiti. Many students came from a background of poverty. Caroline Touzin of La Presse stated that many students said openly that they wanted to become procurers of prostitutes ("pimps" if male). According to Touzin, the teachers have the school "tattooed on their hearts" despite the socioeconomic challenges there.[2]

History

It first opened in 1969.[1]

Prior to 1998 it was operated by the Montreal Catholic School Commission (CECM).[3] In 1998 it, along with some other schools in the eastern portion of CECM, was transferred into the territory of the former Commission scolaire Jérôme-LeRoyer, which was replaced by CSPÎ.[1]

gollark: PotatOS is able to make omnidisks somewhat unduplicateable, *but* that only works because their value comes from being cryptographically signed and able to run in privileged mode on potatOS - you can run them anywhere else, it just won't be useful.
gollark: Anyway, you can't really copy-protect software in CC. At all. The best you can do is use a bunch of obfuscation techniques together to make it mildly hard to do anything with it, and add some code to check computer ID or something.
gollark: I really ought to move to osmarks.net or something for critical services like the potatOS backend servers.
gollark: Freenom require you to renew your domain 2 weeks before it expires, lest they take it away and charge money.
gollark: They really should use potatOS's *good* UUID generator.
