GTA Schools Ranked Highest

TORONTO, ON - The Fraser Institute has released its annual ranking of Ontario elementary schools, and it appears school boards here in the GTA are making the grade.

GTA schools tended to be performing above the provincial average in the latest ranking, according to Michael Thomas of the Fraser Institute.

"The provincial average is a 6 out of 10, and we're seeing that almost all of the boards in the Greater Toronto Area, except for the Durham Public District School Board are actually above that 6 out of 10 rating," Thomas said.

Within the GTA, an impressive 15 schools are rated 10 out of 10.

"To put that in perspective, across the province there are 19 schools in total getting that 10 out of 10, so 15 of them are right here in the GTA," Michael Thomas said.

Some of those schools include St. Justin Martyr in Unionville and Seneca Hill here in Toronto.

The Conservative think tank says their report card allows parents to review the academic performance of their child's school over the past five years and compare it to other schools in the province.

Toronto is home to three of the fastest improving elementary schools, with Stella Maris Catholic School, St. Angela Catholic School and Perth Avenue Junior Public School.
