[edit] History

Regiopolis-Notre Dame is a united school of the Regiopolis College and Notre Dame Convent. Due to the high cost of enrollment the schools joined in the 1960s. Regi has been in its current building since 1977 and has had two expansions, one was in 1993 and the other in 2004. The 2004 expansion added a second gym to the school, which now is the site of most Regi sporting events, school masses, and spirit rallys.

[edit] Athletics

Regi's mascot is the Panther (previously the Red Skins) and the school colours are garnet and gold. Regi hosted the 2006 OFSAA Boy's Volleyball tournament where they placed third in Ontario. Also at the 2006 OFSAA Boy's Soccer tournament, the team placed first. The Panthers also have two other OFSAA medals. Regi is also home to the four-time Co-ed Cheerleading National Champions (2001-2005). Regi's largest rival is Holy Cross Catholic Secondary School.
