With August, the back-to-school month, just around the corner, it's the perfect time to reflect on the past academic year.
In this article, we highlight the top 10 most viewed elementary and secondary public schools in Toronto, showcasing the institutions that attracted the most interest and visits throughout the academic year.
To see the full list of schools ranked by academic performance, choose All, Elementary, or Secondary.
Before we dive in, here are a couple of observations. First, our secondary school pages tend to receive more views compared to elementary school pages. In our assessment, two factors drive that. First, secondary schools generally have larger student bodies than elementary schools, naturally leading to a higher number of parents and students seeking information. Second, the reputation of secondary schools plays a more significant role compared to the elementary ones as it has a critical influence on the future career opportunities of soon-to-be graduates. This heightened interest in school reputation, academic performance, and available programs drives more traffic to secondary school pages.
Also, while Hausworth provides information on all public schools in Toronto, no Toronto Catholic board schools made it to the top 10 list. In the interest of fairness, we will highlight the most visited Catholic schools below each of the top 10 lists.
