A third of the students come from outside of the catchment area, giving the school the distinction of being the only secondary school in Prince George with no empty seats and an extensive waiting list. The popularity of the school is linked to its successful band program, quality instruction, and sense of belonging to a learning community felt by staff and students. The school is named after Dave Todd, a long-time school SD#57 superintendent.
