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