“St. Antoine Daniel Catholic School first opened its doors in 1970 as St. Daniel School. It was then an eight-room open complex school with an enrollment of 126 pupils. In the intervening years, as North York has grown into a vibrant city, the school has kept pace with it, always mirroring the changing needs, concerns, and aspirations of the community at large. In 1988, interior walls were erected, bringing the open-complex era to a close. The face of the school has changed too, reflecting demographic changes in the larger community. In 1984 the school name was officially changed to St. Antoine Daniel to be more readily identified with its patron saint, Father Antoine Daniel, a Jesuit missionary who lived and worked among the Hurons. The school has, over the years, forged strong links with the parish and the parent community.” As originally published by St. Antoine Daniel Catholic School
