About Us
John Grant High School, part of the English Montreal School Board in Côte-St-Luc, is a safe, inclusive space for students ages 11-21 with unique learning needs. We support those facing learning challenges, intellectual impairments, or academic delays through individualized education plans (IEPs) that emphasize functional, social, and life-skill development. Our specialized programs offer practical skills, work experience, and vocational training, leading to MEQ-recognized certifications that prepare students for life beyond school.
Welcome to John Grant High School. In our school, you will find a most welcoming community of students, staff and parents who come together to help our students learn and develop into educated, well-rounded, independent and responsible young adults. We build community that feels like family and relationships that last a lifetime.
We believe that in order to be successful, people need to feel safe and supported in all facets of their lives. We know that through thoughtful collaboration between home and school, every child can achieve individual success.
As a staff, we look forward to carrying out our responsibilities to ensure that our students feel safe, happy and included. We provide opportunities for meaningful work, growth and development for all of our students. Each of our students are supported in pursuing their individual goals, discovering and developing their passions and achieving success within the framework of our many specialized programs that lead to certifications and attestations.
We ask that as parents, you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:
- Knows that you expect him/her to succeed in school with our collective support
- Attends school on time, on a daily basis
- Proudly wears the school uniform
- Takes responsibility for his/her work, words and actions
- Understands the importance of self-respect, respect for others and respect for the environment
- Keeps an open line of communication and shares important information between home and school (and vice versa)
- Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills
On behalf of the John Grant High School community, welcome to the family.
