Welcome to Danforth Collegiate's Guidance and Student Success Department! Our purpose is to help young people reach their full potential. Our department provides a welcoming space for students to access a variety of services. We are here to help students with pathway planning, teach self advocacy skills, support students' social and emotional development and facilitate a connection between students, teachers, caregivers and the community.
We have three application only programs and would like to share details about each program with your students at our Open House on November 3rd.
SSWAB: Secondary School without a Boundary (Tech Program) & SHSM
MaST: Math, Science, & Technology
French Immersion
We will be sharing application specifics in our “How To Apply” Presentations at 3 different times throughout the evening for your convenience. The same presentation will be delivered at 5:15pm, 6:15pm and 7:15pm in the Danforth Auditorium. Staff will be available to answer questions and prospective students will be able to view our spaces on a self guided tour.
