R.H. King Academy

This school year we are once again expecting that along with the students academic accomplishments there will also be significant accomplishments in the areas of Service, Athletics and the Arts.

Whether students become involved in the athletic program, the 20 leadership councils, the many clubs, Mentor activities, the 30 Hour Famine, the Terry Fox Run, the Assemblies, Urban Noise, Grease, the GSA, Multicultural Week s or anything else, these special moments will always be treasured.

We are fortunate that we have wonderful parents and students. It gives me great pride to share our accomplishments with friends and colleagues, wherever I go. I am indeed fortunate to have such a marvelous staff and student body. Staff, students and parents continue to work together to make R. H King such a special place.

Our School Council, under the auspices of our Chair Brian Cruickshanks, welcomes your input and continues to meet on the final Monday of each of each month at 7:00 p.m. Come out and take an active role as a parent partner in the school.

Education is the best way to solve the problems that surround us. All TDSB schools provide an excellent education. We are taking an active role in being a leader in this venture.

Best wishes foe an excellent 2011-2012 school year.

This fall King's Senior Girls' Basketball team had an undefeated regular season. Players played well and worked hard every game. It was great to see the support, motivation and encouragement they showed each other all season. The girls continued their winning ways in the playoff to earn a spot in the championship game. After losing a close final last year against Churchill the girls were excited to come back and play for first. In front of a spectacular crowd full of King fans they put it all together to become Tier 2 East Region Champions!

Golden Apple Award (September 2010)
OmniTV

Mr. Ryu received the Golden Apple Award from Omni television for the month of September. Mr. Jonathan Ryu teaches computer science and mathematics at R.H. King Academy. He has been with the school for the past four years. He also coaches the tennis team and takes the Computer Programming Team to various competitions through out the year.

The Grade 12 computer science class is filled with many brilliant, energetic, and diligent students, all with their unique and colourful personalities. The course gives students a chance to challenge their minds and explore one of the most promising industries in Canada.

Students voted for Mr. Ryu through the OMNI television website. They never imagined that their entries would be selected and were completely surprised of the outcome. Mr. Ryu is truly grateful to have students of such high caliber and he is very appreciative of the thoughtfulness of his students.
