TOMKEN ROAD MIDDLE SCHOOL

 

Tomken Road Middle School is a large, multicultural institution serving Grades 6–8 in the well-established Applewood neighbourhood. With enrollment exceeding 800 students, the school operates across two separate buildings: Tomken North and Tomken South. It offers three distinct programs: English, French Immersion, and the highly regarded SciTech stream. Additionally, there are two ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) classrooms. Tomken challenges each student to earn the prestigious "Tomken T" by accumulating 100 participation points across academics, arts, athletics, and community involvement.

 

The SciTech program, in its ninth year, admits a cohort of 56 students annually for this 3‑year inquiry-based science experience. Graduates often participate in competitions such as the Canada Science Fair, First Lego League, and bridge-building challenges. Tomken’s French Immersion stream delivers up to 50% of instruction in French, including science, social studies, arts, and drama.
