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.

Famous quotes containing the words programs and/or study:
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
“Most married couples spend the whole day apart, the woman in the house, the man in the office or study or workshop.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
