It is located in Almonte, Ontario, which since 1998 has been a ward of the town of Mississippi Mills. Its catchment area includes Almonte itself and most of rural Mississippi Mills.[1] History{{stack|}}A local historian states that ADHS opened in 1875,[2] although a cornerstone on the building bears the date 1876. An early and illustrious ADHS student was James Naismith, the inventor of basketball. Naismith entered ADHS in 1875 but left in 1877 to work for several years. He returned in 1881 and graduated in 1883.[3] Present dayThe ADHS football team is called the Almonte Thunderbolts. In 2003 the Thunderbolts finished on top of the province-wide OFSAA league. They have won 11 regional championships since 1990. The Almonte Thunderbolts also took home another OFSAA win with their junior football team during the 2015 football season. The SchoolBOX charitable organization was created by ADHS alumnus [https://web.archive.org/web/20101105164619/http://www.schoolbox.ca/team.htm Tom Affleck]. SchoolBOX builds schools for children in Central America, and many of its volunteers are ADHS students. Watch a CBC television report on SchoolBOX. On March 20, 2013 Rick Mercer went to ADHS to film a clip for the Rick Mercer Report as a part of the Spread the Net campaign. The school raised a total of $5,854.05 for the campaign, which was the most among Canadian secondary schools. The clip aired on CBC television on April 2, 2013 at 8:00PM. Notable alumni
