Profiles

Saltfleet District High School is located at 108 Highland Road West Stoney Creek, Ontario, and is a member of the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board. Opened in 1996, Saltfleet is the most recent secondary school to be opened by the Board. The school had a 2009-2010 enrolment of 1250. The school's mission statement is "Educating students to become lifelong learners and contributing citizens in a challenging, changing, multi-cultural world."

Successful completion of the test is one of 32 requirements students need to attain in order to receive an Ontario Secondary School Diploma. Saltfleet also offers special education classes as well as an ESL program and is one of two schools in Canada with a fully operated observatory.
