Untitled[edit]

I'm sorry but I am a former graduate of Senator O'Connor College and school. No, it does not "mainly offer Chinese Saturday school". It excels in leadership committees such as Camp Olympia, ESP, sports, the arts, and the academics. Please correct this.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 130.15.204.150 (talk • contribs) 2006-04-06.

I cut and pasted the person who did a little history about our high school onto the article. I also edited it a little.

I also went there back from 1993 to 1998. In the article he states that there used to be a swimming pool. Yes there was but it wasn't there when I started in 93. Rumor had it some one drowned so they buried it. If they did buried it had to be that someone or some people were sneaking in there so the reason but its likely not. Its most likely that they got rid of it because of lack of funding, The 90s were messed up because of the Conservative government with their cutbacks. It effected our Sports programs to be cut back because teachers didn't want to do coaching pro bono.

I remember going there when the Conservative government decided to make me and my fellow grade 9s the very first test subjects of their new ciriculum calling it a 'distreamed' program. This was supposed to gradually ease us into high school by having us stay with the same people the whole year most of the time while and now credits were given until the end of the school year.--Justwisted 06:27, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I might be attending this school next year. Do you think this is a good choice? 65.94.156.61 01:20, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I went there and graduated almost 10 years ago in 97. I would say yeah its great. I came back for a visit and I was delighted to see many of the same teachers I had still teach there along with some of the students I went to school with there. I found it very easy going and time flew by fast. I don't know how it is now but when they have a open house for potential new students go take a visit and see the new building it just open in 2005, when I went the school originally could only hold 700 students and it had portables scattered on the property. I would say the school is now a top notch facility with great teachers now.--Justwisted 04:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I went to the open house, the school looks great. :D I've already submitted my high school application, I'm going there! Thanks for the comments on the school, it helped me make my decision. :P 67.70.39.49 03:08, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

School Alumni[edit]

I think the our 'Famous Alumi' should have the years they attended the school (eg. 1993 - 1998) not the years where they where they have spent with thier careers. Wes Williams seems to have his year of birth attached to his name and Larry Murphy has his career years in the NHL attached too.--Justwisted 04:31, 15 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:OCSlogo.jpg[edit]

Image:OCSlogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:12, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notable Alumni[edit]

I am a former alumni from Senator O'Connor. In fact, I had 5 older sibliings that attended OCS prior to me. My two oldest sisters appeared in Bye Bye Birdie and Music Man in the 60's and I was in My Fair Lady and Joseph.

I attended OCS from 1979-1984.

Notable alumni. Marilyn Bell did not attend OCS. It was Cindy Nicholas-presently a lawyer in Toronto and a Member of the Order of Canada-1979 At age 16 she swam across Lake Ontario in 15 hours and 10 minutes. She would later swim across the English Channel on 19 occasions, including the first two way crossing by a woman.

Also, notable alumni should include Rick Wharton. He has been involved in the entertainment business ever since he appeared in assemblies and musicals at high school. Rick presently has his own radio show in Ottawa. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.225.157.201 (talk) 16:02, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
