Forest Hill Collegiate Institute (FHCI) is a public secondary school in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is operated by the Toronto District School Board (TDSB) and serves students in the Forest Hill neighbourhood. Before 1998, the school was part of the former Toronto Board of Education.[1]

History

[edit]

Forest Hill Collegiate began in January 1948 when Grade 9 classes were first held at Forest Hill Village Public School. The school moved into its dedicated building on September 29, 1949, constructed for the Forest Hill Board of Education.[2]

The original structure was designed by the architectural firm Page and Steele.[3] Significant renovations took place between 1992 and 1994.[4]

Curriculum

FHCI offers the standard Ontario secondary school curriculum. Senior students may participate in cooperative education, gaining workplace experience for academic credit.[5]

Extracurricular activities

Students may take part in a range of extracurricular programs, including athletics, music ensembles, student government, and various clubs. Leadership opportunities include the student council and prefect program, which help support school events. Music-related activities are organized through a student-run music leadership group. Production crews assist in staging school performances.
