History

The school is name after Béatrice Desloges, an early twentieth century Franco-Ontarian teacher in Ottawa who, with her sister Diane, successfully opposed Regulation 17 which aimed at rendering illegal all French language teaching in the province of Ontario. [ [http://www.francoidentitaire.ca/ontario/texte/T0268.htm 1916 ] ]

The school opened its doors in 1997 [citeweb | url=http://www.saumure.ca/ecole.html | title = Pages des écoles des Saumure | date = 2001-09-17 | accessdate = 2008-07-31] , in order to give more space to the overcrowded Garneau high school in Orléans, Ontario. The student population grew rapidly when the 7th and 8th grade groups were incorporated to the 9-12 group in 2001, and since then, the school has been undergoing expansion in order to accommodate the growing number of students.

In 2006, it was announced that an entirely new three-story section would be builtcite web | url = http://www.expressottawa.ca/article-62917-Coup-dil-sur-2006.html | title = Coup d'oeil sur 2006 | author = Florence Bolduc | publisher = L'Express - Ottawa | date = 2006-12-29 | accessdate = 2008-09-11] where the previous school extension stood, and would be entirely dedicated to the 7th and 8th graders, thus separating them from older high school students. In addition to this, it was announced that a modern amphitheatre would be built inside, meaning that the previous theatre could be removed. This allowed the expansion of the cafeteria, which had been largely criticized for failing to accommodate the amount of students over the years, and also allowed the addition of a new atrium, a gymnasium, and an exercise room. Although most of the construction was finished by the end of August 2007, the amphitheatre would not be opened until the beginning of spring 2008 [cite web | url = http://www.adfo.org/index.cfm?p=news&id=319 | title = Nouvelles : Béatrice-Desloges inaugure son nouvel amphithéâtre | date=2008-05-13 | accessdate = 2008-07-31 | publisher = ADFO] , costing in total a near twelve million dollars.cite web | first=Emma | last=Loignon-Giroux | date=October 2007| url=http://beatrice-desloges.ecolecatholique.ca/fr/lExpress_étudiant_66/items/8.html | publisher=École secondaire catholique Béatrice-Desloges | title=Béatrice-Desloges réinventée et revampée | accessdate=2008-05-12]

On March 2nd, 2007, the school was awarded the Prix jeunesse (youth prize) by the organization "Communications et société for World Social Communications Day", for its unifying religious and artistic interpretation in "Le chemin de croix du XXIe siècle" (The Way of the Cross of the 21st Century).

Programs offered

PSA

ESCBD offers a Specialized Arts Program for students which starts from grade 7. Once a student officially enrolls into PSA by grade 9, he or she has to choose a specific domain of specialization: either Music, Visual Arts, or Drama. [http://www.beatrice-desloges.ecolecatholique.ca/fr/Programme_spécialisé_en_arts_(PSA)_25.html] Within the Drama specialization, a partnership with the [http://www.enh.qc.ca/ École nationale de l'humour] (National Comedy school) of Montreal is offered for specific modules.

Optimax

The school also offers a program for gifted students named "Optimax". To be admitted to the program the student must demonstrate high academic capabilities, such as a 79% overall average in the following subjects: French, mathematics, sciences, social studies (history and geography), as well as a minimum grade of 75% in each of those subjects. [ [http://www.beatrice-desloges.ecolecatholique.ca/fr/Centre_denrichisment_Optimax_21.html École secondaire catholique Béatrice-Desloges: Centre d'enrichisment Optimax ] ] There are three categories within the program pertaining to specific age groups. Grades 7 and 8 are in the Exploration program, Grades 9 and 10 in the Planification program, Grades 11 and 12 in the Specialization Program. At the completion of High School studies, students who have successfully completed all three programs receive a certificate of completion with their High School Diploma.
