Ascension of Our Lord secondary school is located in Malton (part of the city of Mississauga) in Ontario, Canada. It is part of the Dufferin-Peel Board. It was originally established as a Middle School (Junior High School), but was converted to a Secondary School (High School) in the 1980s. The school building was expanded at that time to accommodate the extra students, and in the 1990s portable classrooms were added and removed as the student population expanded and contracted. In 2005 the original building was demolished and a new larger structure was built. The facility was opened to students on January 2006. Ascension Of Our Lord has produced famous alumni which include * George Stroumboulopoulos * Carlton Chambers In 2012, the Fraser Institute named Ascension as one of Ontario's fastest improving schools. Although a Catholic school, it is open to and welcomes students from all religious backgrounds. ==History== The school opened in 1977. Originally it was a middle school. After 1984, when the Province of Ontario decided that Catholic secondary schools were to be fully funded, the school expanded into high school grades up to grade 13. The original school building was demolished in 2005. In January 2006 the current school building opened.〔"(School History )." ((Archive )) Ascension of Our Lord Secondary School.

Paul McMorrow, the supervisor for the district's Brampton East-Caledon-Dufferin-Malton family of schools, said that a small number of staff members supervises the school's students, numbering at 800, during lunch, therefore the division of the lunch periods is a safety issue.〔Mann, Arshy.

Retrieved on May 20, 2013.〕 Arshy Mann of the ''Toronto Star'' said "Many students argue the change not only reduces their lunch by a third, but that it hurts working students who can’t stay after class for academic help or extracurriculars."〔 Students started a walkout, and police intervened.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ascension of Our Lord Secondary School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
