Oakville Trafalgar High School, founded in 1908, is a Secondary School located in the Toronto suburb of Oakville, Ontario. The school is widely known by its acronym "OT" in the community, or OTHS. The various sports teams go by the nickname "Devils". The old campus was located on Reynolds Street until 1992, at which point a new campus opened on Devon Road. In recent years, the school has been widely know for its high quality of students and acedemic achievements. OTHS is has strong roots with the community, being a feeder school to schools such as E.J. James, and St. Vincents, with some coming from St. Lukes. The OTHS Rugby program has been strong with the school for many years, bearing the mascot of the Devils. This use of religious symbolism has discouraged some students' parents to allow to attend that school, sending them to other schools in the area, such as STA, Appleby College, and so on.

Graffiti

On Tuesday 11 Decemeber 2007, school managment discovered vandilism in the boys washroom, including threats of violence towards students and staff in the last week of classes in 2007. The staff followed with Board procedures, and called the police. The Halton Police Deptment have followed up on this with an investagtion, and has conclueded that this incident has a low risk factor, and there is little need to become concerned, as it is believed that a distubered indiviual thought that they could get an extra week of Christmas vaction. This has been a growing trend of threats in high schools in the area, none of which have been proven true.

Sports

Oakville Trafalgar has a strong sports program, especially in rugby. The school also has a swim team, a golf team, a basketball team, a ski team, a football team, and so on. The football team is sadly not as strong as the rugby, for the students at the school feel that protective equipment is bulkly and un-needed.
