      NEWS:
      • The Fraser Institute has released its "Report Card on Ontario's Elelentary Schools 2010", and Century's results are, to quote a certain Mr. Davies, "truly amazing". Century's rank among 2742 Ontario schools is 396, up some 200 from last year's results - the 6th most improved school in our area. Century sits 12 of the 74 schools ranked in the Ottawa Carleton District School Board, tied with two other schools. Way to go, Century!!
        Here are some links:   Century's info   ·   watch a video describing the ranking exercise   ·   the complete report for Ontario schools (242 pages, 1.6 MB) .
