Hill Park Secondary School is the oldest high school on the Hamilton Mountain and is a member of the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board. The school, located at 465 East 16th Street in Hamilton, was founded in 1955 as a fully composite high school, and was the first secondary school built on the Hamilton Mountain. The school was built as part of Hamilton's need for more secondary schools to match the increasing enrollment of baby boomers. Currently, the school has an enrollment of 941 students. The HWDSB announced on 24 May 2012 that Hill Park Secondary School will close, along with Barton Secondary School and Mountain Secondary School. The students will be consolidated into a new, $25 million school.
Drive to 85 is a program that gives students more ways to accumulate credits to graduate while improving the quality of high school education in the province. The program's aim is for 85% of Ontario students to graduate from secondary school by the 2010-2011 school year.
