St. Michael’s College School was founded in 1852 by the Basilian Fathers, and stands as Ontario’s only independent Catholic school for young men. The school offers students in Grades 7-12 an enriched, Catholic, Liberal Arts education complemented by a number of diverse co-curricular programmes. As a community within the Catholic Church, St. Michael’s strives for excellence through a synthesis of culture and faith. The motto of the Basilian Fathers and St. Michael’s College School is “Teach me Goodness, Discipline, and Knowledge” (Psalm 118). This recognizes that being a good and disciplined individual, in charge of your own actions, is as important as the knowledge acquired through formal education. The motto is reflected in our mission to educate the whole person. Toward that end, St. Michael’s offers a Catholic, Liberal Arts education that exposes young men to as wide a range of knowledge as possible, encompassing the Humanities, the Arts, and the Sciences.
Forest Hill South is the section of Forest Hill located to the south of Eglinton Avenue West. Forest Hill is one of Toronto’s wealthiest neighbourhoods. Historically, when they were built in the the 1920s and 1930s, it was mandatory that every Forest Hill home be planned by an architect, and that a tree was planted at the facade of each property. Forest Hill is one of Toronto's more pictorial regions. Its scenery offers a combination of numerous parkettes, gently sloping hills, and winding roads, providing the neighbourhood with a special appeal.
