GTA School Rankings - Report Card
A special 12-page pullout section in Sunday February 17th Toronto Sun shows how 1,026 GTA schools ranked provincially, with standings presented regionally for Toronto, Durham, York, Halton, Peel and Mississauga.
The annual report card ranks 2,786 elementary schools in Ontario based on the results of standardized tests in reading, writing and math written last spring by Grade 3 and Grade 6 students. Everyone has an opinion to the value of these tests, so don't make any snap judgements. There are so many other considerations to be taken into account from arts to athletics to extracurricular activities.
If you feel these reports are worth a look, you can find detailed tables evaluating the academic performance of each school online at torontosun.com/reportcard or the complete 2008 Fraser Institute Report Card on Ontario Elementary Schools at fraserinstitute.org.
