Roland Michener Secondary School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roland Michener Secondary School is an English public high school in South Porcupine, Ontario. It is a small school with an average enrollment of 350-500, and is part of the District School Board Ontario North East. Until the 1997-1998 school year, it was part of the Timmins Board of Education.

[edit] House system

A feature that makes the school unique is its house system. All homerooms are split into 4 houses named after prominent Canadian politicians: Baldwin, Frontenac, Tupper and Vanier. Each house competes throughout the school year at different competitions (House Wars, homeroom games, citrus sales, etc...) to earn points. The house with the most points wins the Housemasters Cup at the final assembly of the school year.

[edit] Distinctions

The school was visited by Pierre Elliot Trudeau, then Prime Minister of Canada, and is named after a former Governor General of Canada, Daniel Roland Michener.

A team from Roland Michener won the 1982-83 national championship of Reach for the Top.
