History
Albert College was founded in 1857 by the Methodist Episcopal Church as the Belleville Seminary. It received it's University Charter in 1866 and was renamed Albert University. At this time it was an affiliate of the University of Toronto. Once the Methodist Churches united as the Methodist Church of Canada in 1884, the school federated with Victoria College. At this time the school became a high school. The original building was partially destroyed by fire in 1917. The current building located on the Dundas Street West opened in 1926 and was affiliated with the United Church of Canada. The School began admitting girls in 1934.
