Emmanuel Christian School, Quebec

Last updated


Emmanuel Christian School (EMCS) is a Christian private elementary and high school located in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, Quebec, a city of Greater Montreal. Emmanuel Christian School bases its educational and religious values primarily on Evangelical Protestant principles. However, the diversity of the staff is typically free to express their values regardless of denomination. The school exceeds all of the educational requirements of the Ministre de l'Education, du Loisir et du Sport.

Emmanuel High School opened its doors to 38 students enrolled in Grades 7 and 8 in September 1975. The school was located in the former Surrey Gardens Elementary School, which belonged to the then Protestant School Board of Montreal. An additional grade was formed and admitted each consecutive year until the first year of graduates obtained their diplomas in 1979.

Once the High School was established, parents began to ask for the elementary grades to be added. In September 1981, Kindergarten and Grades 1 and 2 classes became available, followed by Grades 3 and 4 in September 1982. Grades 5 and 6 were added in September 1983 until the complete school, from Kindergarten to Secondary 5 was formed.

In 1991, the school moved out of the premises it had rented for 16 years in Dorval in search of a permanent location. The school was located in temporary quarters on Gouin Boulevard in Pierrefonds for two years.

Eventually, in 1993, Emmanuel Christian School chose a permanent site. After many renovations necessary to convert the property, the school moved in on Thanksgiving weekend of that year into its current building on Boulevard St-Jean in Dollard-des-Ormeaux.

Fall 2015 marked the 40th anniversary of Emmanuel Christian School.

EMCS offers both elementary and secondary education from Kindergarten up to Grade 11. There is only one class per grade in elementary, with usually 18-25 students per class. The High School has two classes per grade, and the maximum number of students per class is 25 to 28. The maximum enrollment for the entire school is roughly 400 students.

The current principal is Mr. Jean Obed Jubuisson, the High School Administrator is Mr. Alexander Ko, the Elementary School Administrator is Mrs. Judy Ikegami, and the Director of Operations is Mr. Martin Plante.
