Loretto Abbey Catholic Secondary School is a girls only high school in Toronto, Ontario, established in 1847 by Catholic Bishop of Toronto Most Rev. Michael Power and Loretto sisters from Ireland. Since 1986, Loretto Abbey High School has been administered by the Toronto Catholic District School Board (formerly the Metropolitan Separate School Board)[1].

Originally located on Duke Street, it moved to a Bathurst Street site and then to Bond Street in 1860. In 1867 the school relocated to the former home of Attorney General Robert James on Wellington Street. In 1927, the school moved to the current home in North York, a Gothic Tudor style building on Mason Boulevard[2].

At one time, the Mason Boulevard building housed a private primary school in addition to the secondary school. The primary school, which was run by Loretto sisters resident in the attached convent, closed in 1985.[citation needed]

Loretto Abbey remains an academics-oriented school which educates girls to university entrance standards. The school offers an Extended French programme and many Enriched / Advanced Placement courses[3].
