Technological Design Teacher

Since 1852, under the direction of the Basilian Fathers, St. Michael's College School has been educating young men in goodness, discipline, and knowledge for lives of leadership and service, and forming them in faith to present the face of Jesus Christ to a world that is in need of his grace and his peace.

We are Canada's only Catholic, Basilian, faith-based independent school. We educate young men from Grades 7 to 12 in a university-preparatory programme. Our scholastic environment for all boys is well designed and suited to their particular strengths, aptitudes, and needs. It provides a unique learning and growing experience during which a boy develops the framework of his character and builds the foundation for his life as a man. 

In graduating young men who change the world through lives of faith, character, and service, 
St. Michael's College School brings integrity, unity, and healing to a fractured and uncertain world.

Whatever the role at St. Michael's College School, it is more than a job – it is joining a community of likeminded colleagues who embrace the school's values and deliver those values in everything that they do.
