Since taking on the role of your Councillor, I have been unwavering in my efforts to advocate for a high school in Oak Ridges. I have had several meetings with the Director of Education to expedite the construction of this school. Therefore, I am delighted to finally witness some tangible progress. Oak Ridges has been promised a secondary school for so long and it's finally being built.
A Site Plan Application have been submitted to the City by the York Region District School Board (YRDSB) to build the Dr. Bette Stephenson Secondary School in Oak Ridges.
YRDSB requested a site plan amendment to convert the existing adult learning center into a public secondary school with a 5,100 square meter addition to the existing building.
Now the school won't go up overnight. According to the YRDSB website the school is proposed to open September 2027.
