Events, forces, and issues facing Canadians today are examined in an historical context. Courses in Canadian, American, and Ancient Civilizations, as well as Sociology and Economics are currently offered. Experiencing history is an important part of the courses, so field trips are planned to compliment the curriculum.
To further the goals of our program, EOM’s history teachers have developed a partnership with Carleton University’s Department of History. Professors have provided their expertise in lectures to our students both at our school and at Carleton. Assistance also has been provided to our students as they produced historical documentaries and many learning materials have been donated to our department.
In addition, EOM is the only high school in Ontario that successfully offers two Advanced Placement history courses in European and American history. These enriched courses allow our students to obtain university credits while in high school.
