Why St. André has a band rather than a letter
Its standing, the second fifth in Ontario, comes from the province’s published results set beside every other school’s; St. André itself carries no letter, since letters are kept for towns.
For a letter, see Tecumseh’s Schools page: the town’s grade takes in St. André and its neighbours.
