Overview

edit

The 2008-09 enrollment of the school was 235 students, with 113 at the junior level and 122 at the senior high level.[2] It is reportedly the only school in Nova Scotia where 100% of students are bused to school.[3]

A major addition was completed in 1988–89, adding several new classrooms and a new cafeteria.

Sports

edit

In 1993, National Soccer Hall of Fame member George Brown coached the girls soccer team to the Provincial Championship.[4]

In 2016, the Cabot Trailblazers (school basketball team) won the NSSAF Provincial Championship for the first time in school history against the Pugwash Panthers, who were in the midst of a dynasty as the four-time defending champions, by a score of 95-89.
