Etobicoke Collegiate Institute (ECI) is a large high school located in Toronto's west end overseen by the Toronto District School Board. It was founded in the fall of 1928 and is one of Toronto's oldest schools, having celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2003. The high school has about 2000 students and over 100 teachers.
ECI's school colours are garnet, green and gold.
The school mascot is a ram named Ruckus.
E.C.I's traditional rival is Richview Collegiate Institute, located about 2 miles north. Both schools compete vigorously in football, and share a somewhat similar socioeconomic deomgraphic.
