Oakridge Secondary School is one of the government-operated high schools (as opposed to collegiate institutes) in the neighbourhood of Oakridge in London, Ontario, Canada. The school enrolls around 1000 students, and is located on Oxford Street in West London. The school's nickname is Oakridge Oaks and its colours are red, blue and gold.
Founded as a county school in 1959, Oakridge High School became Oakridge Secondary School when London annexed a large part of the surrounding countryside in 1960. The school became the first in London to adopt three colours: red, blue and gold. Its stability encouraged a large financial investment in modernizing and upgrading the physical plant in a major renovation during 1994–95. The school's Latin motto is "Nostrum viret robur" (Our strength grows as the Oaks). Oakridge is the only school in the Thames Valley District School Board that offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) diploma program. [1] [2]
