The Collège de Montréal is a secondary school for students attending grades 7–11 located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. A former Roman Catholic Seminary, it was founded 1 June 1767 as the Petit Séminaire of Montreal by the Suplician Order. From 1773 to 1803, it was known as Collège Saint-Raphaël.

In the mid 1800s a number of former students went on to become activists for First Nations and Métis rights. They included Mohawk chief Joseph Onasakenrat and Metis leader Louis Riel.

Collège de Montréal

It was the first high school in Montreal and is still considered one of the best in the province. It is particularly well-regarded for its "accelerated immersion" program, in which students from English schools who were in French immersion programs can, within two years, be brought up to the same level as students who came from francophone schools. Although enrolment was previously limited to boys, the school has been co-educational since 1997.

In a widely reported article in 2008, Le Journal de Montréal found that school administrators and in particular its Director-General, Jacques Giguère, had expensed a large number of non-school related items, including high-priced furniture, a luxury hotel suite for a Christmas party, and the services of a personal trainer. Both the school's teachers union and staff union called for Giguère's resignation. ^[1]
