Published EQAO results
The percentage of students meeting the provincial standard, as published by the Education Quality and Accountability Office. These are EQAO’s own figures. We do not combine them into a score, rank schools against one another, or describe any school as better than another — a single year of results at one school reflects a particular cohort, and reading more into it than that is not supported.
| Assessment | Meeting the provincial standard |
|---|---|
| Grade 9 mathematics | 72% |
| OSSLT (literacy test) | 89% |
The surrounding area
A main-street district between Dorval Drive and Sixteen Mile Creek, in the middle of a long redevelopment.
Kerr Village is the closest thing South Oakville has to a genuine urban main street outside downtown. Kerr Street runs south from the rail corridor to Lakeshore Road West with continuous storefronts along much of it, and the surrounding blocks are the densest residential fabric in the area covered by this site.
