Talk:Sprucedale Secondary School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Just to point out, this is a Prison for Young Offenders.

[edit] Re-edit

All below I took out:

Terry Fox which was co-ed & work oriented. Pheonix for the girls, but later become boys only. Aquarius & Ken-We-Ta were for boys. Mercury unit was kept mostly as a punishment or loss of privileges. Unlike most other high schools, it has a built-in swimming pool, extensive outdoor environments, dental and medical facilities. It is located in the easternmost part of Simcoe, Ontario, Canada.

This stuff and the Harry Potter reference is misleading if not incorrect. Its a prison- murders and violent criminals are there, these facilities are related to the prison not the high school, there are no teams and any other school-related activities. I worked for a relatively brief time at GEDSB and met a teacher who explained how the school worked.--Mikerussell 16:03, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] You are wrong...

I was at Sprucedale for 22 months, 1996-98. There are school teams, basketball, and volleyball. Other schools in the area come in to play games, and certain "students" were allowed to go into the community and play games. The county track and field meet was held inside the fence, at Sprucedale, while I was there. Sprucedale students who won their events at our Sprucedale "student" track day, were allowed to compete against the students from the other high schools when the track meet was held inside our facility.
