just looking to tap the CP collective with respect to Calgary high schools.
my son is currently in grade 9 at a catholic k-9 school and he is thinking about which high school to go to.
our designated school is bishop grandin so far my son has visited both bishop carroll and bishop O'Byrne as well as central memorial. I believe he has ranked carroll #1 (due to the self directed learning), central #2 (due to hockey program) and then others schools as 3.
my son is also considering taking AP math and science as these subjects have always been easy for him.
so looking for some comments from any grads of these schools, or other members with kids who go to these schools or are in high school.
- what is the homework load in the ap courses
- do you think ap courses are worth the extra effort
- does anyone kids go to a school with a hockey program? my son has been on the bubble to make a quadrant team for each of the apst two years, so I was wondering if somehow he made it next year (highly unlikely due to the who stupidity of minor midget) would it be too much hockey between school and quad?
