Oakville Trafalgar (aka “OT”) is Oakville’s 2nd-oldest high school, first opening its doors in 1908. Much has changed since then with the school moving to its current-day location on Devon Rd in 1992.

What hasn’t changed is OT’s ranking as one of the best schools in the province. This year it retains its spot at #2 in the rankings.

As for its catchment area, it is one of Oakville’s most expensive, housing some incredible private estates, colonial homes, mid-century bungalows and custom homes. However, there are more affordable options in the secluded Clearview pocket on the eastern edge of the city.
