Before the school's opening, students attended Emily Carr Secondary School and Woodbridge College.[8] At Woodbridge College, it operates as a "parallel, but separate" school, during which time the building at Woodbridge College was shared by two schools with separate staff and student body.[9] It had previously maintained an office at Maple High School.[10]
The school's boundary was approved by the YRDSB executive in January 2002, during which boundary changes for the opening of Emily Carr Secondary School and Maple High School were also approved.[8] Because of unanticipated demographic changes in Vaughan, the school had one fewer feeder school than originally forecast by YRDSB planners.[8] The school's boundaries are Highway 400 to the east, Rutherford Road to the south, Pine Valley Drive to the west, and the King-Vaughan town line in the north.[5] Before opening, students residing south of Teston Road and north of Major Mackenzie Drive attended Woodbridge College, except those southwest of the area delimited by Millwood Parkway.
