Should we put in a list of the faculty?

I would avoid a staff list, as it would become obsolete quickly. Rather, I would talk about the school, particularly things others might consider exceptional or different. When doing so, mentioning the odd name, might be relevant. Also, mentioning a name of somebody well known outside of the school would also be good, generally (curent/former faculty/alumni). --rob 02:00, 17 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Graduates

I attended ACI from 1960 to 1966. Two of my classmates who went on to receive recognition in their fields were Sue King and Ed Clark. As well I have the idea that Bruce Kidd attended because I seem to recall a picture of him on the wall, but I can't find a reference. Takhini (talk) 19:20, 23 September 2012 (UTC) No, to the best of my knowlege Bruce Kidd did not attend ACI. You may be thinking of Bruce Simpson who was a former ACI Athlete of the Year. He was twice a member of the Canadian Olympic team in 1972 and 1976 and competed in the pole vault event.Reply

 I attended ACI in '68 and 69 and I remember the picture of Bruce Kidd on display.  I was under the impression that he had attended the school.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.157.26.183 (talk) 21:57, 30 December 2013 (UTC)Reply 

You also forgot to mention David Tsubouchi, former Cabinet Minister in the Ontario Government (1995 - 2003)

Since when did ACI become the worst school in Scarboro........that is defintely not the case and the entry needs to be corrected!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.50.12.207 (talk) 15:07, 27 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Alumni

I just checked all of the alumni entries. Only one had a source for the school, and that was not to a reliable source (a blog). All of the other entries either had an unsourced claim or no mention at all of this school in the subject's articles. Meters (talk) 06:30, 29 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Forgot to mention that one other article did have a source, but the source did not actually say that the subject had attended this school, just thtt he attended a school in the same town. I've added a reliable source for one of the alumnii. I've found sources for several of the other alumni but they are not reliable ones and so cannot be used.Meters (talk) 07:35, 29 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
A year and a half later and no-one has added any sources. I'll make one more attempt at sourcing them and then delete anything that is still unsourced. Meters (talk) 02:08, 22 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Did another pass. Last chance to source those still missing sources: Syl Apps, Jr., Daniel Gaudet, Kathryn Greenwood, Gary Jarrett, Brad Park, Kent Ruhnke. We need reliable references saying they attended the school: (not mirrors of Wikipedia, and not just that they were born in Agincourt, or grew up there, or lived there, or attended an unnamed school there).

Done [1]. Please do not restore any of these entries without a reliable source showing their attendance. Meters (talk) 06:11, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
