John Paul II Catholic Secondary School
John Paul II Catholic Secondary School

John Paul II Catholic Secondary School, often referred to as JPII, John Paul, or Jp; is a secondary school in London, Ontario. It is administered by the London District Catholic School Board. It is located at 1300 Oxford Street East, at the northeast corner of Oxford and Highbury Avenue, next to Fanshawe College and Robarts School for the Deaf. The property is quite large and occupies the corner of Oxford and Fanshawe. The school opened in 1985 and was originally located on Huron Street. The current building at Oxford and Highbury was opened in 1991. The school received national attention as it became the first fully carbon-neutral school in Canada in November 2021. The project was unveiled in 2019 and received $4.8 million CAD from Natural Resources Canada (NRCan), and was built and managed by Ameresco. The process involved installing solar panels on the roof and above the parking lots, a geothermal exchange system, and Tesla batteries. The School is well known for its technology department and sports departments. Classes include the following: Transportation, Construction, Manufacturing, Hospitality, Dance, Drama, Guitar, Vocals, Co-Op and several others. Like all London District Catholic School Board schools, it is a uniform only school. The school's colours are maroon, black, beige, and white, and its team name is Jaguars (or "Jags"). Its motto is maturare in dignitatem ("mature in dignity"). This school was named after Pope John Paul II. The school houses a "cafetorium", which is a fusion between a cafeteria and an auditorium. It has a cafeteria area with a stage that houses extra seating underneath. The entire room can be turned into a theatre, as is common with the school's frequent live musical performances. The school's stage was also well known for Just for Laughs. The school was host to one of the biggest high school charity events across London, Ontario called JP2 ONERUN. It was a breast cancer run that took place on the last Friday of every May. The event was very popular amongst students. The school runs a charity effort every year named "Be An Angel Campaign", which occurs in December. Its main focus is providing monetary support for local disenfranchised families during Christmas.

École secondaire Gabriel-Dumont

École secondaire Gabriel-Dumont is a public French first language high school in London, Ontario, Canada. It is located in south-east London on Evans Blvd, in the Summerside subdivision. It is named after Métis leader Gabriel Dumont. The president of the school is Anabelle Stinson. Proportionate to its size, London has an extremely small francophone population; however, it qualifies for French language services under the French Language Services Act, and also qualifies to have French schools. While there have been French elementary schools in London since 1972, it was not until 1979 that a French high school was created. Originally it was only one class, at London Central Secondary School. Over time, the program grew to include a wide variety of subjects and became known as Le Module scolaire de langue française (MSLF). Due to changes in the organizational structure of the education system in Ontario, the MSLF became Gabriel-Dumont in 1998. It would subsequently move out of Central, and into the same building as the Catholic school. The project that would become CDL had been in the works for over a decade; however, it was stymied by political fighting. In 2007, it was announced that Gabriel-Dumont would move from its location within the CDL project and into its own building in September 2012 on Evans Blvd in the Summerside subdivision. The school grades are different from most schools in Southwestern Ontario, which start at Grade 9 and end in Grade 12. Gabriel-Dumont holds classes from grades 7 to 12.

CIXX-FM

CIXX-FM is a Canadian radio station, broadcasting at 106.9 FM in London, Ontario. It is licensed as a community-based campus radio station by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), and airs a Rhythmic Top 40 format featuring hip-hop, R&B and dance hits. CIXX broadcasts at an effective radiated power of 3 kW from Fanshawe College's "M" building, which effectively covers the City of London and some areas outside the city. The station is operated and programmed by students in Fanshawe College's School of Contemporary Media. Radio Broadcasting students work in on-air announcing, talk programming, writing, production, music programming, sales, and promotions. News stories, full interviews, images, events and contests are all placed on the station's website. Journalism-Broadcast students operate under the title "XFM News" and provide newscasts for the station. These students work through three different 5-week rotations each semester. They are required to either be a Reporter, Newscaster, or Documentary Producer. On the reporting rotation students are required to attend events and conduct one-on-one interviews to help produce two local stories each day. As a Newscaster each student takes turns broadcasting at the top of the hour mixing local, national, and international stories using Newsroom software. As a Documentary Producer most students produce three 4-minute radio features each week. When the station was branded as 6XFM during the late 1990s and early 2000s, students of the Radio Broadcasting program from Fanshawe College would rotate as hosts of weekly live-to-air broadcasts from various bars and nightclubs throughout the City of London.
