Emery Collegiate Institute

Emery Collegiate Institute is a public semestered and adult high school in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, part of the Toronto District School Board. Prior to 1998, it was part of the North York Board of Education

The school is named for the nearby neighbourhood of Emery. It was built in 1960 and opened in September 1961, to serve a then-new suburban housing development. In the main hallway, the school has a visible display of its original bell from when it was first built. Charlie Brown served as the first principal in the school, alongside Allen S. Merritt, who served as the first Vice-Principal. The building was designed by architects James Murray & Henry Fliess.

Emery Junior High School operated in this building until 1985 when the school merged with G. B. Warren Junior High School (formerly Humbermede Junior High School) to form Humber Summit Middle School. The Collegiate has solely since operated grades 9-12 only with an adult program attached.

In 2000, Toronto Police arrested 4 people in relation to a shooting that happened in the school parking-lot, which injured 3. One of the 4 arrested was charged with criminal negligence causing bodily harm, attempted murder, and discharging a firearm. In 2007, the school was investigated by the Toronto District School Board for possible gang-related activity.

In 2009, students from the school came third among 875 others, in a NASA-organized science competition. In 2014, students representing the school came in first place at the Art of Physics Competition organized by the Canadian Association of Physicists.

In 2015, the school was included in a list of schools that may possibly get shut-down (due to various reasons, such as underpopulation, age, et cetera) by the government.

In 2017, the school was listed among the bottom 20 (worst-rated) schools in Ontario, by the Fraser Institute. Receiving an FI Rating of 1.5/10, the school ranked 730th out of 747 schools.

In 2013, the school was shut down temporarily due to flooding in the hallways.
