The History of
St. Thomas Aquinas
Secondary School


The Original Building - 115 Glenvale Boulevard

St. Thomas Aquinas Secondary School opened its doors on September 2, 1976. Located at the corner of Glenvale Boulevard and Central Park Drive in Brampton and situated on an eight acre site, St. Thomas Aquinas served the Catholic community of the Bramalea area.

Fr. Clare Tipping and Fr. Kelly Walker celebrated mass in the school gymnasium at the official school opening and blessing.

The original St. Thomas Aquinas Secondary School plant was built as an intermediate school. It had a central core of 69,000 square feet. As the enrolment increased over the years, the additional students were accommodated with the addition of a 10,000 square foot portapak in 1980/81 and eventually 42 portable classrooms. When the school first opened in 1976, the enrolment was 500 students in grades 7 through 10. Under the guidance of the founding principal, Tom Reilly, the staff included 40 teachers and several secretarial and custodial staff. When it became financially feasible, the Dufferin-Peel Separate School Board added additional grades. By 1982, St. Thomas Aquinas had a full secondary school program of grade 9 to 13.

Before receiving secondary school funding, only grades 9 and 10 were publicly funded. Grades 11, 12 and 13 were financed through tuition and the contribution of teachers’ instructional time.


The Current Building - 25 Corporation Drive

St. Thomas Aquinas moved to its current location at 25 Corporation Drive in 1992. The school is situated on a 17 acre site. The 3 storey building offers 179,494 square feet of space and was constructed at a cost of $14,958,000.

Some of the features offered by the building include a 2 storey high Chapel that will seat 100, a 3 storey high forum and cafetorium, a 2 storey high library resource center and a triple gymnasium with 6 change rooms. There are 9 science labs, 5 computer rooms and facilities to offer a wide variety of technological programs, including Automotive, Construction, Communication, Manufacturing, Hospitality, Electronics, Cosmetology and Photography.

Outdoor facilities include a 400 meter running track, football field, 3 tennis courts and a practice soccer field.



Even with the new building, enrolment has continued to climb over the years to as high as 2,240 students and presently 1937. There are currently 22 portables onsite to accommodate the additional students.

In 2001, we added a 21 room, $5.2 million extension. The addition  included 18 regular classrooms, a small theatre, two staff workrooms, a new Weight/Fitness room, new Dramatic Arts room, and an English Media Communications room.

How Does Co-op Work?

 

-Cooperative education courses include a classroom component that comprises of

pre-placement and integration activities, and a work placement referred to as a

placement component.

-Students may earn 1,2,3 or 4 school credits by integrating classroom theory and

related course expectations with planned learning experience in the community.

-Placements provide students with challenging opportunities to apply and extend

their knowledge and to practice and refine the skills acquired in the related course.

-Students will be able to demonstrate their achievement of placement expectations

that reflect current workplace practices and standards.

 

Pre-placement Orientation

Prior to their placements, all cooperative education students must demonstrate an

understanding of a variety of topics such as: health and safety issues, The Ontario

Human Rights code, The Labour Relations Act, Workplace Safety Insurance Act,

unions and collective bargaining.

 

Integration

The integration classroom component provides students with an opportunity to:

relate their placement experience with curriculum expectation; reflect and analyse

their placement experiences; and reinforce job-skills theory.

 

Placement

An assessed work placement which meets Ministry of Education guidelines provides

students an opportunity to develop their skills, personal growth and career exploration.

Students must demonstrate the learning expectations of a course in a practical work

setting and are evaluated according to their ability to demonstrate those learning

expectations.

 

Personalized Placement Learning Plan (PPLP)

The teacher monitor, student and placement supervisor develop the Personalized

Placement Learning Plan. This plan identifies the curricu­lum expectations to be met,

the tasks to be performed, and the meth­ods of evaluation. Revision to the Personalized

Placement Learning Plan may occur at any time during the work placement.

 

 

Dual Credit Program

Dual Credits engage students through exposure to college courses and culture while supporting their successful transition to postsecondary education.  Visit www.gotocollege.ca

These programs offer senior secondary students an exciting opportunity to gain experience and skills towards apprenticeship qualifications, while still in high school.

St. Thomas Aquinas Library

 

 

LIBRARY OPERATIONS AND POLICY

 

Hours of operation: Monday to Friday 7:50 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. (approx.)

 

LIBRARY CARDS

Shortly after photo day, students will receive a laminated student card. These cards will act as your library card as well. Students wishing to take out library materials will be expected to show the student/library card at the circulation desk.

 

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL MATERIALS SIGNED OUT ON YOUR CARD. NEVER LEND MATERIALS SIGNED OUT IN YOUR NAME TO SOMEONE ELSE!!!

RULES

1. Loan Policy

Almost all materials in the library can circulate. Reference books cannot be taken out during the day and are for overnight use only.

Overnight loans must be returned before the first period of the following school day. The current magazines do not go out. The information here can be photocopied so the original is available for others. Materials are all on a set loan period. For the regular collection, a two-week loan period exists. Should time run out, a simple renewal will allow the borrower another loan period. However, if the due date is missed, a fine begins per item.  Back issue magazines and compact disks are all on a one-week loan period.

 

2. Library Use

Individual use of the library is encouraged. The tables are for group work. Low-level conversation is expected.  For those who want to work in private, the study carrels are meant to provide some isolation from those working at the tables. For this reason, no talking or socializing is allowed in the carrel area.

 

3. Computer Use The computers in the library are for the On-Line Public Access Catalogue (OPAC), or Internet use. Students are expected to make use of each of these functions.

Formal lessons on the use of these programmes will be given in class, but if a student wishes to learn early, simply ask the library staff.

  

4. Internet Access

The Aquinas library provides internet access to students. Students are encouraged to use this source of information, but only after the books and magazines have been consulted. The internet is not a starting place for information searches.

Student access will be allowed once the student has signed the Board’s Acceptable Use Policy.
