BEST HIGH SCHOOLS IN MISSISSAUGA
Best High Schools In Mississauga
Determining the best high school for your teenage child can be very hard, especially if you just moved to a new place and don’t know the surrounding, including schools and educational opportunities. Many parents, when relocating, have to do their due diligence before they decide to settle down in a neighbourhood. After all, education of children, especially at the delicate age from 12 to 18/19, has a considerable impact on their future life and how they will see the world one day and what they will become.
Real estate agents, of course, take into account these concerns, and they try to come up with as much information as possible on any facilities, and schools, in particular, to be able to give valuable advice to parents. Let’s take a look at what you can expect in Mississauga regarding the different high schools and their impact. In general, there are 16 high schools in Mississauga, and all of them are decent, but according to the Fraser Institute and other performance ranking bodies, some of the top Mississauga high schools are as follows:
John Fraser
This high school is widely known not only in Mississauga but outside the city as well, and it is located in the lovely neighbourhood of Central Erin Mills known for a fantastic school district altogether. The neighbourhood is affordable, which is not always the case with properties around top school districts. Parents moving to Mississauga should look up properties in this neighbourhood if they have teens. The John Fraser High School is focused on students’ personal growth, diversity, inclusion, and academic accomplishments. The school also offers Advanced Placement (AP), summer and night school.
St. Marcellinus Catholic School
Located in Meadowvale Village, the St. Marcellinus Catholic School has become known as one of the most reputable schools in Mississauga since it opened in 2003. The school promotes essential Christian values and offers ambitious academic programs. With dedicated teachers in place, the school manages to achieve great results and ranks relatively high in Ontario in general.
The Lorne Park Secondary School
With an enhanced program for gifted children and an Extended French program, this school offers excellent variety. The school is mainly known for its athletic and art departments. Co-op education, just like in many other Mississauga schools, is part of the school’s program preparing its older students for their future and work. The school is located in Lorne Park, one of Mississauga’s mover-upper neighbourhoods.
Cawthra Park High School
This school is known for its excellent academic achievements and student performance and for its Regional Arts Program, which attracts a vast number of applicants each year. Dramatic arts, visual arts and music are the most popular programs in the school. Situated in growing Lakeview, the school will probably see even more applicants as many parents and homebuyers are showing a great interest in the area.
