An English school (Vaudreuil High School) used to be in the current Paul-Gérin-Lajoie buildings. It is now used for adults in continuing education.

Previously, Pavilion Vaudreuil (the northernmost building on campus) was divided into two sections: one for boys, Salle G (garçons, or boys) and Salle F (filles, or girls) which were used in between classes. There was previously a baseball field, but it was destroyed to build Brind'Amour, which, unlike the rest of the campus, is a primary education establishment. The football field was the closest thing to a replacement for the baseball field.ESCJ on Google Maps (January 2019)
