St. Clement's Church, also known as St. Clement's, Eglinton, is an Anglican church located in the Yonge–Eglinton neighbourhood of Toronto, Ontario.

The parish was established in 1891 by St. John's, York Mills.[1] The present church building was erected in 1925 by architects Page & Warrington and Charles MacKay Willmot. A parish hall, designed by Molesworth & Secord, was added in 1938.[2]

In 1901, Canon Thomas Wesley Powell, Rector of St. Clement's, founded St. Clement's School. Classes were first offered in the parish hall but they later moved to their own purpose-built building down the street. Initially co-ed, the school today is all girls and remains affiliated with the church.[3][4]
