A Century of Achievement

St. Michaels University School has a long and proud history as the provider of a well-rounded education for local and international students for a century. Thousands of young men and women have woven themselves into the fabric of SMUS and gone on to remarkable accomplishments in many spheres of endeavour.

It is clear from reading of the current School and its two founding schools–St. Michael's and University Schools–that certain strong threads have woven the fabric of todays vibrant St. Michaels University School. The vision and dedication of committed educators; the generous hand of philanthropy at every key point of development; supportive parents; bright and eager students. This is our heritage and our future.
