WELCOME TO
JOHN RENNIE
Our high school opened
in 1955 and was named in memory of the Honourable John
Rennie, member of the Legislative Assembly. Mr. Rennie
was instrumental in persuading the government of Premier
Duplessis to provide the funds to build a badly needed
school in Pointe Claire. Families of the era were forced to send their
youngsters as far away as Montreal West in order to pursue secondary
studies. John Rennie has
grown a great deal since those days of the basic
Ministère de
l'Éducation, du Loisir et du Sport (MELS)
curriculum.
John Rennie offers one of the most diverse curriculum
available at the secondary level. We have two computer
labs connected via the school board's fiber optic
network. We also have a robotics lab where
students learn to program robots for competition. We offer a
range of options that we challenge other schools to
meet: Pottery, Drama, Actors' Studio, Journalism, Spanish, Debating,
Photography, World History, Music
(concert and jazz band), Law, Psychology, Computer
Applications,
Architectural Technology, Advanced Physical Education,
enriched Science electives, and Leadership. Our
timetable is constructed to provide the students
opportunities to enjoy a variety of options, while still
pursuing a specific interest such as music. Academic
programs offered at JRHS can be found here.
