Town Hall. The original two-storey school building had five rooms, and was completed in 1912 (the same year that the town of North Toronto
became part of the City of Toronto). Later, the school was renovated to include a third storey and became the north side of the old building, once the south section was built. Other additions include the 1956 math (east) wing, swimming pool
, cafeteria
and auditorium
, as well as the science wing in 1966-1967. Eventually, boarding was installed due to concerns about falling debris. Prior to the closure of the older building, camera crews from CTV
toured the school and documented some of the school's many structural problems.
In September 2010, North Toronto Collegiate Institute moved into to a new building, which cost an estimated 52 million dollars. The new facility includes a roof garden, underground parking lot, and school-wide wifi system. Once demolition of the old building is complete, construction on an artificial turf field will commence.
North Toronto will be celebrating its 100th anniversary in May of 2012.
Every year, in January, students run a "Charity Week" to raise money for a chosen charity. In addition, proceeds from the student-organized Fashion Show go to the selected charity. In recent years, fund raising has increased dramatically; for example, in the 2008-2009 year, NT raised over $40,000 for Childhood Cancer Foundation Canada. A year previous to that, the charity was The Stephen Lewis Foundation, also raising over $40,000. In the 2009-2010 school year, students raised $40,000 to support the Not For Sale Campaign. In the year 2010-2011, North Toronto has stellarly raised over 45,000 dollars, donating the money to War Child, with over 20,000 from Fashion Show Genesis 2011.
North Toronto has two newspapers, the school sponsored "Graffiti" and the student published "Red and Grey", also known as the "RAG".
