Police also said the parents have been notified. It is unclear how the collision occurred.
A spokesperson from Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board told Global News the teen, a Grade 9 student, was riding his bike when he was struck on school property.
The spokesperson said there were many students who may have witnessed the incident or the emergency crews response as it occurred just before the start of the school day.
“This will be upsetting for some and we have encouraged those who may need support to connect with any member of the school’s administration team or student support services team,” the board’s spokesperson said.
“We pray for our student and for a complete recovery from his injuries.”
