Wow. In edmonton, if we're talking about academics, then it is definitely going to be in the following order

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. % k# r3 y# ]8 e$ _' r& s% n9 V* L% U: l; O

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 :)
