John English Junior Middle School is a public elementary school in Etobicoke, Ontario, Canada. It is located on Mimico Avenue, east of Royal York Road. The original school, a one-room brick building, opened in 1884 and moved, after a series of renovations and rebuilding, into the former Mimico High School building in 1993. The auditorium, cafeteria, gymnasium, and other specialized areas are shared with the Community School.

School Profile From the 1920s? to demolition (1990s?)the school was on the north corner of Royal York Road and Mimico Ave. It was a large two story brick edifice that reached to Elizabeth St. Separate playgrounds for boys and girls had a wood fence between them in the early fifties. The ceilings were ornamented plaster set in a square pattern by the old caretaker (who lived in a small house on the Elizabeth St end) after hours. He was a never-ending source of school and local area history.
