    My understanding is that the high school has closed. The elementary school is still listed on the city of Edmonton public school web site.

    Well thanks for clearing that up in such a respectful manner. Unlike you I don’t know everything about everything. My thoughts are if the city of Edmonton can’t take it off their site I can be forgiven for it too.
