Calgary Board of Education (CBE) - Queen Elizabeth High School

Queen Elizabeth High School was built in 1910 and has undergone a series of additions and renovations to keep it up to date. Students are assigned the same homeroom teacher throughout their years at Queen Elizabeth providing students with the opportunity to develop a one-on-one relationship with that teacher. This opportunity also supports students in developing relationships with their peers in different grades. The homeroom teacher is available to offer academic and emotional support.
