Bayview Glen is a co-educational, multicultural, non-denominational, university preparatory day school. The school is located in North York on Duncan Mill Road near the intersection of Don Mills Road and York Mills Road. Bayview Glen is a school from age 2 to Grade 12.

There is a preschool campus for students between the ages of 2 and Junior Kindergarten. The Upper School is for students in Grades 9 to 12, located in a separate campus on Moatfield Drive across the street from the lower school. Bayview Glen is a member of Round Square and CISAA. ==History== Bayview Glen was founded in 1962 by L. Doreen (née Barwick) Hopkins as a nursery school and day camp housed in a barn in the Don River Valley located north of York University's Glendon College Campus on Bayview Avenue at Lawrence Avenue East near Crescent School. It was also where Crestwood School is currently located. By 1964, Bayview Glen had expanded to include students from age two to Grade 1, and an adjoining property was acquired. By 1969, new buildings had been added and the school grew to include students through to Grade 6. In 1980, Mrs. Hopkins died, and the L. Doreen Hopkins Foundation took control in overseeing the furtherance of the founder's dream. The barn was closed and a permanent facility was built in its place. There was still no room for an Upper School so space was leased from an engineering firm at 275 Duncan Mill Road. In 1985, four teachers, and a grade 7 and 8 class made the move into the renovated office space. Through the rest of the decade, one grade per year was added. In 1989, the valley property was sold and the Lower School moved to the Duncan Mill Campus. In 1991, The Doreen Hopkins Foundation was taken over by the Macmarmon Foundation and Terry Guest was appointed Headmaster. Also in 1991, Bayview Glen had its first graduating class. In 1998, Bayview Glen acquired the Upper School Campus. In September 2000, the Upper School was opened by HRH The Duke of York. The site was complete with a double gymnasium and theatre complex. In 2001, Terry Guest left Bayview Glen and took up the position of Executive Director of Round Square, of which the school is a member. He was succeeded by Stuart Grainger, who was Headmaster until 2003. He is currently the Headmaster of Trinity College School in Port Hope. Eileen Daunt was appointed Head of School in 2003. In 2007, Bayview Glen celebrated its 45th birthday. Bayview Glen celebrated its 50th anniversary during the 2011-12 academic year. 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「Bayview Glen School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
