Renovations in 1987

Changes After Construction
After relocating to the upgraded school in 1989, the seventh and eighth grade students were then moved back to the District which then became a middle school for students in grades 6 - 8. The following September Dundas Central began renting some of its empty classrooms to the Brock University Teachers College.
Gymnasium
