It is also being built right now and has a working name of "Northwest Calgary High School."

New LRT station along Crowchild Trail (Tuscany Station) will open in 2014. (Link).

One thing about that area is that they tend to get significantly more snowfall than other areas of the city due to the elevation. Royal Oak is the highest point in the city. Also, roads tend to be more treacherous there due to the increased snow, winding roads, and hilly terrain.
Will Rocky Ridge/Royal Oak kids have access to the Tuscany and Arbour Lake schools though?
