The St. Marcellinus mathematics department strives to offer its students the best mathematics classroom experience possible. The teachers of the department are a strong group of highly qualified educators who do their best to ensure that each student in their classroom have both their educational and spiritual needs met. With the use of Smartboards and handheld graphing and algebraic systems the mathematics students of St. Marcellinus can experience mathematics using a wide variety of tools. We offer daily after school math help to support our students needs and to help them be successful in their math courses. Student success is demonstrated through our EQAO scores which are some of the highest in the province. In addition, our graduated students have shared countless stories of their mathematical successes due to their high school education here at St. Marcellinus. We look forward to working with each and every one of our students here at St. Marcellinus Catholic Secondary School and look forward to creating new and exciting experiences with each of them!
