The Fraser Institute says the best-performing elementary school in the Kootenay-Columbia district is Rossland.
The think-tank has released its annual rankings of schools in BC based on provincial test results.
But it’s often criticized by educators and administrators who feel it’s not an accurate reflection.
Rossland came in 210th out of 956 in the province.
Other schools included Fruitvale at 438th, Kinnaird at 518th, and J.L Webster in Warfield at 663rd.
