      History


      Dublin Heights, established in 1823 as "Dublin Hewights," was a high school from 1823 to 1959. The high school became a middle school in 1959 due to the addition of William Lyon Mackenzie Collegiate Institute to the area.
      The school was named after the original name of the area, which was Dublin Hewights, and then Dublin Heights.
      During May of 2020, the school was victim to an act of antisemitic vandalism saying "all heil Hitler" in chalk. The perpetrator was never found and the case was closed by the police on June 6th, 2020.
      In 2024 during December another incident of antisemitic vandalism took place in the school's bathroom having a poorly drawn swastika and the words "#KillTheJews" and "Hitler was right" written on the walls, as well as numerous rocks thrown at windows throughout the year.
