Wow. In edmonton, if we're talking about academics, then it is definitely going to be in the following order7 Y9 p( j; q* ^' T! P0 }
: m. m, X' t; c k- P
1) Old Scona Academic
3 P1 O/ e: y' d/ L Y7 ~5 A2) Harry Ainlay: |- f- v0 {4 Q
3) Arch Bishop MacDonald
9 D! Z" ^, ?0 k! d9 K: E* ?
7 l% t! g' u& E; {- {. hStrathcona 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.

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. :)4 T3 J, \: O0 n/ [( i8 T% M

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! |
