The school is located in neighborhood called Norwood West which is a part of the city ward of St. Boniface. Nelson McIntyre Collegiate is a part of the Louis Riel School Division. Nelson McIntyre Collegiate, or N.M.C. for short, was the only high school in the Norwood School Division. In 1998 the Norwood School Division amalgamated with the St. Boniface School Division. In 2002 the St. Boniface School Division was amalgamated with the St. Vital School Division and the new division was renamed the Louis Riel School Division. The present building was constructed in 1956, and officially opened on November 16, 1956. In the early days of the school, it was called the N.K. McIntyre Collegiate. The facility stands on the site of the former Norwood Collegiate Institute. Before N.M.C. existed, a school called the Norwood School stood in its place. Prior to that, it was known as the Taché School from 1906-1927. The school takes its name from the Norwood School Board chairman who died suddenly a week before the grand opening of the school was to take place. It was decided that the school should be named in his memory and therefore the school was named after Nelson McIntyre. The gymnasium is named in honour of James W. Downey. Mr. Downey was the Superintendent of Norwood School Division from 1969-1980. The gymnasium was officially opened on March 21, 1977. The first Merit Award was presented to S.E.Brock in 1928, and the oldest Nelson McIntyre trophy is the Norbridge Trophy presented by Frank Wade to the N.M.C. Badminton Club doubles, one for the boys and one for the girls in 1959. In its history at the school has suffered from 3 fires. The first occurred on July 22nd, 1986. This fire was intentionally set and caused over 5 million dollars damage to the school. The school was rebuilt by September, 1987. The other fires were not as serious but still caused great damage to the Industrial Arts/Home Economics section of the school, completely demolishing a Clothing lab and a Graphic Arts lab. 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「Nelson McIntyre Collegiate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
