Wow. In edmonton, if we're talking about academics, then it is definitely going to be in the following order
! P9 }* E* l9 l& ^0 h- p, u, b! O; `
1) Old Scona Academic5 B1 C8 C p9 R8 X: s7 `! G
2) Harry Ainlay

$ g# P$ u* u: o! Q! ?8 G' zStrathcona 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. :)/ a: J, H$ \" B9 W

Vic Comp used to be attractive for "artsy students", but now, the new Lillian Osbourne has taken its ranks for being an artsy school..." [! _3 Y( g5 Y) f" t/ c% w% u

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! |
