History

On June 15, 2020, it replaced the former elected Commission scolaire de Montréal, which was created on July 1, 1998, as a result of a law passed by the Quebec government that changed the school board system from denominational to linguistic. Its main predecessor is the Montreal Catholic School Commission which was composed of both French and English Roman Catholic schools and had been in operation for over 150 years.
In January 2021, the Quebec government announced that it had ordered an inquiry into the CSSDM.
