R H King Academy

In 1989, R.H. King Academy launched a new direction as the first Academy in the east end of Toronto. Central to this success is the realization of our school's motto: We care, we strive, we serve. We, the staff and students of R.H. King Academy, demonstrate our sense of caring through such initiatives as community involvement and partnerships .

We strive for academic excellence. We serve to meet the unique needs of each student. This three-fold mission is reflected in such areas as self-directed learning, a challenging curriculum, volunteerism, professionalism, and the acquisition of technological and computer skills.The skills associated with self-directed learning (such as time management and goal setting) are integral components of the student's daily life at R.H. King Academy. Personal leadership development skills are taught and refined to enable students to demonstrate their acquired knowledge and abilities. The school has recently been awarded The National Quality Institute's Order of Excellence, the first high school in Canada to be so honoured.
