About Us

Our story

Woodbridge College opened in 1958 as Woodbridge High School, named after the village of Woodbridge. In 1991 it reopened as Woodbridge College, an academy school with uniforms and a set program for students from across York Region. As the community grew, it returned to being a neighbourhood school for Grades 9 to 12. Today, more than 65 years on, our motto remains the same: Excellence through Commitment.
