Best Schools: B.C. elementary schools

Best schools in British Columbia: Elementary school list

This list is based on the Fraser Report rankings as well as the Best Places to Live rankings.

I’ve taken the top five cities in B.C., based on Best Places to Live rankings, and listed the best schools based on the Fraser Report rankings. I’ve only listed schools that obtained a rating of 6.0 or more, with the average rating for schools set at 6.0.

Just a note: Fraser Institute does not delineate between North Vancouver metro and North Vancouver district. As such, I included both areas in the No. 1 spot and added the No. 6 B.C. city to this list.
