February 15: Manitoulin Secondary School hosts Open House

Manitoulin Secondary School invites Grades 8 students and their parents/guardians to an Open House on Thursday, February 15, 2024 at 6:30 pm.

“We are thrilled to showcase our exceptional programs in our modern school,” says Principal David Wiwchar. “Mark your calendar and join us!”

Manitoulin Secondary School offers learning opportunities for students in various pathways, including Co-operative Education, the Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program (OYAP) and Dual Credits through Cambrian College and Kenjgewin Teg.

Students can also enrol in Specialist High Skills Majors in three sectors: Agriculture – Animal and Crop, Arts and Culture – Visual Technology, and Transportation. SHSMs help students transition from secondary school to apprenticeship training, college, university or the workplace.

Celebrating over 50 years of excellence in education, Manitoulin Secondary School has been reimagined to showcase its geographic location, natural setting, distinct history and rich heritage.

Renovations include upgrades to the building’s automation, water, mechanical and lighting systems, a redesigned main foyer with a fireplace, and a new cafeteria with modern round tables, café-style seating and lounge areas.

Students also enjoy the new library, updated science lab, agricultural classroom, updated shops, refreshed washrooms and the Three Fires Indigenous space – a multi-purpose cultural room for ceremonies, smudging, drumming and storytelling.

Manitoulin Secondary School is located at 107 Bay Street in M’Chigeeng.
