Edge School
Edge School is a private school located in the Rocky View County, just west of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The school was founded in 1999 by Brent Devost,[1] and combines athletics with a strong emphasis on academics. Edge School offers training in dance, golf, hockey, soccer, figure skating and a flex program for students who would like to pursue a sport other than those currently offered[2]
As of 2012-2013, the school is no longer a part of Rocky View Schools, the school board of the Municipal District of Rocky View. It has an affiliate program called Edge School Skill Academy North in partnership with the Grande Prairie Public School District at Alexander Forbes School in Grande Prairie.[3]
