The Elms J M School is located in the Rexdale community of north Etobicoke. We are an inner-city JK to Gr. 8 school of 440 students. We house many programs such as The Early Years Parenting Centre, the Centre for Early Childhood Education (Daycare), a Community School and Pool and International Languages. We have a snack program in which students who participate receives a nutritious snack once a day.
The school was opened on Thursday, October 20th, 1960. Our motto is, "Together we're better!" In September 2012, we opened Boys Leadership Academy. This is a "School within a School", focused on providing boys with an education that suits their varied learning styles. The TDSB has approved the opening of the academy in response to the research data on underachievement of some boys. Boys Leadership Academy continues to grow with grades 4, 5, 6 and 7 classes. In 2014 and 2015 an additional grade level will be added.
