Mary Ward Catholic Secondary School is a Roman Catholic secondary school in Scarborough, a district of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Also called the Wolverine's Den, Mary Ward is a unique centre of self-directed learning and a member of the Canadian Coalition of Self-Directed Learning. It is one of only two self-directed learning schools currently in Ontario and seven in Canada. The school was founded in 1985 as a conventional high school between two campuses in northeast Toronto until it moved into a new building at the northwest corner of Kennedy Rd. and McNicoll Ave., designed specifically for its self-directed learning program in January 1992. The school is named after Mary Ward, a seventeenth-century English Catholic nun who founded the Loreto Sisters.
