What Sets Us Apart

Central Etobicoke High School offers a unique approach to address the curriculum needs of our students.

Parent and Community Engagement

The structure of our Collaborative Community and School Programming Committee has enhanced the functioning of the School Council. It has allowed for increased and dynamic participation by the wider community involving parents, agencies, social workers, school and Board staff, and students. This creates supports for students and parents by connecting with community agencies, and enhances opportunities for experiential learning, and the transition to the workplace and post secondary education.
