Degrassi Community School

''Degrassi Community School'' is a fictional high school in '' Degrassi: The Next Generation'' and the titular academy primarily associated with it. It consists of students from grade 7 through grade 12 and its student body is made up of students from many cultures and backgrounds, paralleling and reflecting the multiculturalism associated with Toronto. The school originally was a junior high, housing grades 7–8. In season two, the school took on high school students after the neighbouring high school shut down (mainly so that the characters could all attend the same school) and housed grades 7–12 for four years before dropping grades 7–8 and becoming a high school. However, this is not a real school; the set is a warehouse sized studio made to look like one at Epitome's studios. After season 4, there have been no characters on the show, minor or major, in grades 7 or 8. In season 10 a

History

Founded in 1986 as Degrassi Junior High School, the facility is believed to be the same facility used in ''
Degrassi Junior High ''Degrassi Junior High'' is a Canadian teen drama television series created by Linda Schuyler and Kit Hood. It is the second entry of the '' Degrassi'' television franchise after ''The Kids of Degrassi Street'' and aired on the CBC from 18 Jan ...
'' and '' Degrassi High''. In 1989, it combined with a high school, and became Degrassi High. The school was remodelled and renamed to "Degrassi Community School" for the school year starting in September 2001, and played host to the 1991 Ten Year High School Reunion shortly thereafter. In 2001, the school held its first nighttime dance entitled "Starlight, Starbright." At the start of season 7, Degrassi Community School merged with rival school, Lakehurst High School, causing much friction between both schools, much of which had to do with the recent stabbing and death of Degrassi student J.T. Yorke. The rivalry resulted in many fights and animosity between the students.


Academics


=Media Immersion Program

= One of the most distinctive programs featured in the Degrassi Community School, is its Media Immersion program (taught by Mr. Simpson up to season 9 and Mrs. Oh until Season 14. It is held in the computer lab). The program features high speed computers with internet access (via
ADSL Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) is a type of digital subscriber line (DSL) technology, a data communications technology that enables faster data transmission over Copper wire, copper telephone lines than a conventional voiceband modem ...
as of 2001) and other educational programs. It also features the most up to date media software programs, all part of the new renovation planned by Mr. Raditch, "proudly bringing Degrassi to the 21st Century". The computer lab uses a network, notably using a system called "D-Mail," where students may instant message each other, and send e-mails. Eighteen new computers were provided by the television program NaK, News About Kids, in exchange for showing their morning broadcasts. Though biased and a source for propaganda which also promotes certain commercial products, the NaK broadcasts were consented to be shown by a vote of parents of the Degrassi students.

Layout

Completely renovated and changed by 2001, the Degrassi Community School features a non-traditional design scheme using new materials. Named a Community School, Degrassi does not follow the typical public school layout but is closer to being identified as an alternative school. By 2002, the school had again been completely changed and reinvented as it merged to become both a junior high school and high school. There are multiple unique aspects of the Degrassi school. In the spacious front lobby, a mural outlooks the front steps, one later redrawn by Jimmy Brooks. Written primarily at the top of the walls above the locker/hallway areas, there are a number of inspirational quotes displayed. The main foyer is host to Degrassi's own motto, written larger and more distinctively than the other quotes. After J.T. is murdered in season six, a memorial garden at the school is built in his name. The school was again renovated sometime during the summer of 2015. The school interior received a new paint job while the lockers were painted to feature a more retro look. All wooden classroom doors were also replaced with new grey doors. Several classrooms are also now equipped with smart-boards and HD television sets for a more digital learning environment. New desks were also included in the redesign. Additional areas in the school include a student lounge room, several sitting areas with cushioned chairs laid around the school, and a renovated classroom for a new course titled ''Digital Arts''. The actual set for where the school scenes are shot in is a warehouse sized studio at

Degrassi Fan Pages FAQ
", ''Degrassi.tv''. Subheading: Where/ how is Degrassi filmed?, "The show is mainly filmed in the Epitome Pictures studios, a former warehouse that has been converted to look like a real school. The studio also houses the interiors of some of the characters' homes, and a mall food-court area. As a result, the majority of Degrassi is filmed inside one large studio. However, we do occasionally take the production "on location" to various places around Toronto that are impossible to re-create in a studio."

; Basketball : Mr. Armstrong (season 1-present, coach), Jimmy Brooks (seasons 1–7, captain; seasons 6–7, assistant coach), Spinner Mason (seasons 1, 3, team manager), Sean Cameron, Derek Haig, K.C. Guthrie, Dave Turner, Connor Deslauriers (water-boy) : Called the Degrassi Panthers, the basketball team is one of the proudest school teams, defeating various rival schools and even having a chance for the regionals. In the beginning of 2001, 15 hopefuls tried out for the team but there were only 12 spots. As Armstrong judged who made the team based on their game performance against Earl Grey, Jimmy and Spinner were cut from the team (the former would be reinstated at the end of the semester). ; Cheerleading a.k.a.
