Woodbridge College is a secondary school in Woodbridge, Ontario, Canada. The school opened its doors in 1958 as Woodbridge High School, and remained a public secondary school until 1991, when it became an alternative school, changing its name to Woodbridge College, with students in grades 7-OAC. In 2000, Woodbridge College’s alternative school status ended and it returned to being a public secondary school with grades 9 to 12. The school's name as "Woodbridge College" remains unchanged to present day. The school building has undergone a major transition from 2010 to 2014 including a renovation and a new addition housing 16 classrooms. The school’s current enrollment is approximately 523 students. In the school year of 2009-2010, Debra Conrad Knight was succeeded by Ann Pace as school principal. The school operates classes from 8:55 in the morning to 3:15 in the afternoon.

Uniform
Woodbridge College is the only public secondary school in York Region where students wear uniforms, a policy which originated during its alternative school days. The uniform consists of either a white or navy blue polo shirt and grey pants. Both the pants and the polo shirts are crested with the school's Wyvern mascot. All articles of the uniform must be purchased directly from the school's designated uniform supplier. All students must wear plain black shoes although this policy is rarely enforced. Uniforms also consist of alternative outwear.
