Michael Power/St. Joseph High School
Michael Power • St. Joseph High School (locally referred as Michael Power, MPSJ or Power) is a Catholic secondary school in Etobicoke, a former borough of the city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The school is an amalgamation of two independent schools in the Six Points neighbourhood, Michael Power High School (an all-male school started by the Basilian Fathers in 1957 initially known as St. Francis High School, later Bishop Power High School) and St. Joseph Islington High School (an all-female school led by the Sisters of St. Joseph in 1949) with the two schools amalgamated in 1982 officially. The school joined the Metropolitan Separate School Board in 1987. In 1993, Michael Power • St. Joseph moved west and north to the former site of Vincent Massey Collegiate Institute, built in 1961 by the Etobicoke Board of Education (later amalgamated with the Toronto District School Board) and closed in 1985, on Eringate Drive, in which the campus has been leased to the MSSB/TCDSB since 1990. It is the largest high school in all of the Toronto Catholic District School Board and one of the largest secondary school population in Toronto with 1941 students in the 2017–18 year and the second largest in Toronto. MPSJ is ranked 244 out of 739 in the 2018-2019 Fraser Institute report card with a 6.9 rating. MPSJ offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) program since 2002 and one of the few TCDSB schools to operate it. The mottos for the school are in the Basilian tradition of "Doce Me Bonitatem et Disciplinam et Scientiam" (Teach me goodness, discipline and knowledge) and the Sister of St. Joseph belief of "Congregavit nos in unum Christi amor" (The love of Christ has gathered us together into one).
