Message from the Director of Education

Dear Catholic District School Board Student:

Welcome! Secondary school is an important and exciting stage of your life. You will be faced with choices about what you will study and learn how to lay a strong foundation for your life’s pursuits after high school. This Program and Course Calendar provides important information to assist you and your parents to make informed choices to meet your individual and academic needs as well as interests in support of your future goals.

The Toronto Catholic District School Board is committed to meeting the needs of all students. We continue to offer innovative and creative programs; supports and pathways that will help take you toward graduation and your chosen path.

As a system, we have embraced the opportunity to Nurture our Catholic Community Through Word, Worship and Witness, which gives us an opportunity to focus on the message of the Gospel, highlight the liturgical life of the local community and encourage the community to highlight the social justice teachings of the Catholic Church through outreach initiatives. Social justice, human rights and the preservation of our environment are only a few examples of how our commitment to Catholic values and traditions can enrich our learning environment and support our students in their academic, spiritual and emotional development.

I encourage you to examine your personal goals, consult with your family and work with your school’s guidance counsellors and teachers before making course selections as they can provide you with added support to ensure that your secondary school experience is a successful one.

We are confident that you will enjoy your secondary school experience as you prepare yourself for your future. Have fun!

Archbishop Romero completes its 21st year in September 2010. Since School Colours: 1989 we have emerged to serve a diverse population that helps to make us Maroon, Black and unique and strong. Our partnership with our elementary associate schools Grey and the dedication and expertise found in our teachers has resulted in higher than average EQAO scores in mathematics and has led to our school being designated as a “Centre for Professional Learning in Mathematics”. Our teaching methods employ the philosophy of “learning by doing”. Teachers offer lessons that take the theory outside the walls of the classroom. Students perform authentic work to produce tangible, often needed, products and services. By doing so, they explore the many potential careers available to them after they complete their formal education. We believe that the education of our students is a partnership of parents, school staff and their parish communities. Together, we share the responsibility for the formation of our students.

Superintendent: Michael McMorrow More about Loretto Abbey:

Trustee: Maria Rizzo The history of Loretto Abbey lies deep in the roots of Toronto. The Abbey, a school for girls, was established by the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary, better known as the Loretto Sisters. At the request of Bishop Student Michael Power, five young missionary sisters arrived from Ireland to be the Population: first religious teachers in the new diocese. The school originally opened on September 29, 1847. The current Tudor Gothic building of cut stone 935 opened its doors in September 1928 and has housed not only day students but also boarders. School Colours: Over the past 158 years many changes have occurred in this country, this city and in the field of education, but throughout that time, Loretto Abbey Double Blue has remained. We offer our girls a modern educational experience in a tranquil historical setting. Here at the Abbey: athletes excel in every sport imaginable; musicians perform with regularity; artists develop and display their talents on stage or on gallery walls; scientists conduct and learn through experiments; languages come alive not only in classrooms, but through local and international exchanges; writers enter numerous contests as do our math and business students; debating skills are developed through participation in model United Nations; student leaders are given the chance to expand their abilities through numerous enrichment activities, but most of all, the Abbey continues to be a place where girls can confidently and comfortably learn and live their faith so that they will be strong young Catholic women ready to take an active leadership role in the Church and our increasingly secular society.

Website: www.smcs.on.ca Our Mission and Vision:

Principal: St. Michael’s Choir School is a Catholic Community whose primary mission is the education of young Christian gentlemen. In this process, Domnic Melino we serve the Eucharistic community of the Cathedral, and prepare young men to assume leadership roles in parish liturgical ministry. Our true purpose is to worship God with our lives; and learning and Superintendent: music provide the means for pursuing this greater calling. Bernice Brand

Trustee: Catherine LeBlanc- More about St. Michael’s Choir School: Miller St. Michael’s Choir School was established in 1937 to serve the People of God in the Archdiocese of Toronto by educating and training the boys who sing in the cathedral’s choirs. Service to the Eucharistic community remains at the heart of Student the choir school’s mission, and this vocation continues to shape and guide all its activities. Population: 95 With The Most Reverend Thomas Collins, Archbishop of Toronto, as its chancellor, St. Michael’s Choir School operates as a unique collaboration between the Archdiocese of Toronto and the Toronto Catholic District School Board. With an School Colours: enrolment limited to 280 boys, the school offers a complete curriculum of academic studies from Grade 3 to 12 that meets the highest standards of the school board Navy Blue and the Ontario Ministry of Education.

The distinctive learning environment features a strong, supportive sense of community, with individual attention, small class sizes and a focus on preparing for university entrance.

The Choral program is designed to foster a lifelong interest in music: many graduates go on to serve the musical life of their own parishes, while some pursue professional careers in music. The course of study includes daily classroom instruction in music lessons in piano, organ and other instruments, as well as choral rehearsals and preparation for a regular schedule of performances in the cathedral and at other special events.

The admissions process is highly selective: of the hundreds who audition, only 32 boys will be offered a place in the training years (Grade 3 & 4) each year. Depending on openings, there are often possibilities for boys to enter in higher grades and even in high school but in those circumstances, new applicants must demonstrate a level of skill and achievement that equals the experience of choir school training.
