Crescent Town Elementary School

Dare to Care   Dare to Share   Here to Learn


Crescent Town School is part of a large inner-city apartment complex located next to the Metro Toronto valley system. The school is situated on the original site of the Massey Estate. In 1973, Crescent Town School opened with an enrolment in excess of 500 students. The school underwent a major construction project over the past few years, which also includes a daycare centre. 
 
Crescent Town Elementary School, presently with over 450 students, serves a diverse ethnocultural and multilingual population. As a former Model School for Inner City, the staff, parents and community are continuously committed to providing increased educational opportunities and rich learning experiences for the students.

Crescent Town is also proud to have a Diagnostic Kindergarten (DK) program for students who require intensive support.  The Diagnostic Kindergarten Program (DK) is a program serving age-appropriate students who lack the required readiness skills for the Kindergarten curriculum because of very limited development in a combination of intellectual, communication, social, self-regulation, and fine/gross motor skill domains, in addition to persistent challenges in daily living.
