Programs of Study
Jasper Place High School offers a wide variety of programs and courses. The most notable of these are the full and partial International Baccalaureate and Advanced Placement programs, as well as general Alberta curriculum studies. Jasper Place is the only Edmonton school to offer Film Studies IB in addition to its many other IB courses. The school also has the largest offering of CTS courses in Edmonton and has developed a major focus on computers, having teamed up with NAIT, the University of Alberta, and Grant MacEwan in order to allow students to complete their high school courses and receive credit for introductory courses at these institutions.
Beginning in the 2008/2009 school year, students will be able to take an additional daily class known as "Block Zero" beginning before school begins. This shorter block will offer many alternative courses.
