École secondaire catholique Franco-Cité is a French Catholic school in Ottawa, Ontario. It is under the CECLFCE (Conseil des écoles catholiques de langue française du Centre-Est). The school offers three main programs to the students.
[edit] History
The school was inaugurated October 20th 1994. In its first year as a high school, ESC Franco-Cité had 150 9th Grade students enrolled. It is estimated that more than 900 students are enrolled at Franco-Cité for September 2006. In 2004, the school started accepting Grade 7 and 8 students, instead of beginning with the usual Grade 9. The school has seen many different incarnations, from sharing its premises with an adult school to old, dusty portables to a now beautiful redesigned building with added space for the two years added to the official high school experience.
