I've looked at a few Fraser Institute rankings and I never noticed anything other than private schools kick ass and the the other schools -- Christian, public, Catholic et cetera fill out the rest of the list pretty evenly.
I'm referencing the achievement test results that are published every year. My former High School (Bishop Carroll) was consistently in the top 10 in the province, as was St. Mary's and another Catholic high school. The private schools were the best, but the Catholic ones were close behind, and then public schools.
