During the incident, investigators say a 15-year-old boy was stabbed.
The victim was taken to a Toronto hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
Two 16-year-old males were arrested at the school following the incident but police said Wednesday that the third suspect had fled the area.
Police confirmed Thursday morning that the outstanding suspect was located and arrested.
The names of the suspects cannot be released under the provisions of the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
