L'Amoreaux Collegiate Institute ("L'Am" for short) is a public high school in Toronto, located in north-east Scarborough. The motto of the school is Freedom with Responsibility. L'Amoreaux has an extended French program, and over three quarters of the students do not use English as their primary language. L'Amoreaux is attended by about 1000 students.

The school hall featured in rock band Rush's 1982 video for the single Subdivisions.
