Starting when Mr. Mark Daly, principal of St. Jean De Brebeuf, took the reins at Brebeuf many changes have taken place. These changes include new lockers, outdoor painting, "hydration station" high-tech water fountains, and a digital welcome sign. Some of these changes, however, have been met with criticism from both the student body and some members of the faculty as frivolous and unnecessary when compared to the state of some of the school's educational resources.
