I believe the school itself requested and aided in the development of this page. I will try to contact them (as I attend the school) and try to obtain formal permissions. jefftheworld 02:54, 01 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Oldest Secondary School

Agincourt Collegiate Institute claims to be the oldest school in Scarborough as it was founded in 1915. I have deleted this and think a discussion may need to be generated on this. Nlsanand 04:59, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

According to the book History of Scarborough by (unknown at this time) from the Albert Campbell Public Library, Agincourt School did come into existence before R.H. King Academy (formerly Scarborough High School. However, Scarborough High School is the first secondary school in Scarborough. Royalflight 02:54, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
