The Student School is an alternative high school in the Toronto District School Board, founded in 1979 for people who had dropped out of high school to find work before graduating, mostly from general-level academic programmes. Finding that not having their high school diploma restricted their job opportunities, however, they now wished to return to earn it. In 1983 TSS changed its focus on drop-outs to also accepting transfers from other high schools.
The school started with 4 teachers and 64 students and was housed in the Eastdale Collegiate building.[citation needed] It then was moved to the Western Technical-Commercial School building, sharing the space with Western and Ursula Franklin Academy.[1] It now has approximately 160 students and generally offers 11th and 12th grade academic courses.[2]
