The methodology
The data behind this score
The Roost Rating weights AEAM above PAT, plus Roost field research, capped at 95. A missing source has its weight shared across the ones that remain, never counted as a zero.
AEAM survey measures · Fall 2025
Each parent, student, and teacher survey measure beside the Alberta average. The verdict is Alberta Education’s own evaluation — it weighs the school’s achievement band and its own trend, so a measure can sit below the Alberta number without a concern or issue flag, or carry one while above it.

- Highwood (location, not catchment)
CBE schools are assigned by home address. Highwood School is the designated elementary only if your address falls inside its catchment — confirm yours with an address lookup. Alternative programs are application-based and many run an admission lottery — they are not guaranteed by address. See how and when applications work.
- Before & after care
From Highwood School's own page “However, a before and after school care program is offered by Kids Come First .”
“Since Highwood School is a Mandarin Bilingual program of choice, all students are taught for half of the day by native English speaking teachers in English Language Arts, Social Studies, and Health.”
From the school's own CBE page — care arrangements and class placements change; confirm with the school before you decide.
