Welcome to St. Aloysius Gonzaga Secondary School and a special welcome to those who are visiting our web site for the first time. Gonzaga is a Professional Learning Community committed to providing all our students with spiritual, academic, healthy and social experiences. We are blessed to be part of the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board, Mississauga North Family of Schools and Merciful Redeemer Parish.
Gonzaga is home to just over 1900 full time students and arguably the best teaching faculty and support staff in the province. We are situated in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada. Gonzaga is home to four programs, Regular Academic/Applied/Workplace, “Career Path” Vocational, Extended French and our Autism Spectrum Disorder program. We have a large facility which is physically connected to the Erin Meadows Community and Recreational Centre which includes a city library and swimming pool.
Academically our school EQAO scores consistently rate among the top in the province. We are commitment to student success in numeracy and literacy. We provide our students with a Pyramid of Interventions that foster the dreams and inspirations of all students. Recently we have hosted educational professionals from the United Kingdom, China, Sweden, Korea, USA, South America, and across Canada, to share, learn and experience the dynamic programs offered at the school.
We encourage our students to get involved in serious outreach experiences, extracurricular and pastoral service life of the school. Gonzaga also encourages and provides opportunities for international travel experiences to promote global citizenship and stewardship. We strongly believe when you become connected to the school and community you become intrinsically motivated to be successful in school.
Gonzaga encourages all of our parents to be involved in their children’s education in some way. We have a strong Parent Council under the leadership of Chair John McKenzie. We have strong support from our local trustees who support all of our dynamic programs. We believe as a Gonzaga community, it is a privilege that parents have entrusted us to educate their children in a Catholic School culture.
Please enjoy our website and see all the great things that are going on in honour of St. Aloysius Gonzaga the Patron Saint of Catholic Youth. May the Lord bless you and your families throughout this school year.
