Strathcona is more known for being a "jock" school - in other words, very athletic. It was also more populated with caucasians... I don't know if that's changed in the last 4/5 years... maybe there are more asians there now? Don't know. 0 m' y z$ @. e- K+ V

Anyways, besides Strathcona being well known for sports, I have never really heard of it being well known for other attributes... Yes there is an AP program, but as far as I know, IB (as offered by Harry Ainlay) is still more renowned. Also... Harry Ainlay has a french immersion program. :)6 K0 M( S2 T. g0 R

For students that have a passion for arts:7 [% I& ~0 v/ j
Vic Comp used to be attractive for "artsy students", but now, the new Lillian Osbourne has taken its ranks for being an artsy school...$ f" T0 l1 c/ H2 t6 T5 a

Otherwise, I still consider Old Scona and Harry Ainlay some of the better schools around in terms of academics :)! O4 B: \, q. f& q

Like I said, I graduated from high school a few years ago, maybe rankings have changed. But when I was in high school, this is what the schools I previously named above were well-known for. Hope this helped! |
