History

First housed in Van Horne School from 2003–2006, then later in the old Lord Shaughnessy High School from 2006–2009, it was later housed in the Dr Norman Bethune School from 2009 until its closure in 2017.

The class of 2007, the first to graduate, was given the opportunity to go to Europe. They visited many important landmarks, such as the Palace of Versailles, the Vimy Ridge Memorial, and Juno Beach in Normandy.

The school was closed effective June 30, 2017, after declining enrollment.[1]

gollark: I am an atheist inasmuch as while I don't *know*, in the absence of evidence it would be silly to go "well, I can't technically rule it out, so it's maybe true" instead of "probably not".
gollark: ↑ Observe, a very outdated GTech™ apiary.
