The school includes grades 9-12 and offers a wide range of academic and extracurricular activities. It is known as an art school, drawing many students from around the Greater Toronto Area into its arts programs. The science programs are well developed, with multiple fully functional science labs. Motto The official motto of the school is "Let Talent Flourish", which is featured in many of the school's murals and artistic expressions, most notably a mural based on Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night, featuring the motto, hidden in the position of the stars. The motto is also featured in the 'boys' foyer'. History O'Neill CVI is the oldest secondary school in Oshawa, opened in its present location in 1909 as Oshawa High School. High school classes had been held in the Central Public School downtown for many year prior to this, so the school's roots go back well into the 19th century. The original building is still in the core of the school, but is not visible from outside.
