Milton District High School (MDHS) is a public secondary school located in Milton, Ontario, Canada. MDHS, part of the Halton District School Board, educates just about 1100 students.
The school opened in 1960, before which time, secondary school students in town had attended the Milton High School on Martin Street. When the new high school opened, grade 10 to 12 students were transferred there, and Martin Street School became a high school, serving students in grade 9 only. MDHS remained the only secondary school in Milton until E.C. Drury High School opened in 1980, followed by Bishop P. F. Reding Catholic Secondary School in 1986.

Famous quotes containing the words milton, district, high and/or school:
“Came vested all in white, pure as her mind.
Her face was veiled; yet to my fancied sight
Love, sweetness, goodness, in her person shined
So clear as in no face with more delight.
But, O! as to embrace me she inclined,
I waked, she fled, and day brought back my night.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“We approached the Indian Island through the narrow strait called “Cook.” He said, “I ‘xpect we take in some water there, river so high,—never see it so high at this season. Very rough water there, but short; swamp steamboat once. Don’t paddle till I tell you, then you paddle right along.” It was a very short rapid. When we were in the midst of it he shouted “paddle,” and we shot through without taking in a drop.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
