Description

A photograph of two attendees at the 1967 Senior Prom at St. Marys D.C.V.I.

St. Marys D.C.V.I. was built in 1954 as a high school to replace the old St. Marys Collegiate Institute in the North Ward. In 1955, the Collegiate Institute became an elementary school called the North Ward School. It kept this name until 1984, when the school was renamed Arthur Meighen Public School in honour of the old school's most famous graduate and Canada's 9th Prime Minister.

The new high school in the East Ward would benefit the Town as the population and demand for high school education was increasing in St. Marys. Today (2024), local high school students still attend St. Marys D.C.V.I.
