I am one of the lucky ones who has great memories of high school. I kept friends from elementary school at Wilder Penfield, and made more at Pierrefonds Comprehensive High School, most of whom I’m still in touch with today. It’s nice to have that resource of people who share a lot of the same […]

It’s funny how life turns out. As a kid, I was never fond of school, even less as I got older. I was raised in the turbulent 70s where I was always a bit of a rebel growing up, I always needed to do things outside the norm. I went to LaSalle Protestant High School […]
