Wow. In edmonton, if we're talking about academics, then it is definitely going to be in the following order+ v6 i6 r: |: Z6 {7 a

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 w' |9 o- A# X' A

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. :)

Otherwise, I still consider Old Scona and Harry Ainlay some of the better schools around in terms of academics :)! N9 M/ U! [/ }9 M3 T, s9 u" X

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! |
