Edge School is an independent school located in the Rocky View County, just west of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Edge School offers training in dance, golf, hockey, soccer, figure skating, basketball, and a flex program for students who would like to pursue a sport other than those currently offered. Edge follows a three-sphere philosophy – academics, athletics and character development of students - which aims to prepare students for either post secondary education or a career in their chosen sport.[1]
History
The school was founded in 1999 by Brent Devost, and combines athletics with a strong emphasis on academics.[citation needed]
In 2008, Edge built a new 170,000 square foot facility with complete academic amenities and a sports complex.[2]
Jim Davidson Sports Complex
The Jim Davidson Sports Complex is an athletic, recreational and community-use facility. Inside the 90,000 sq. ft. complex there are 2 NHL-sized arenas, Founders & Alumni Lounge, gymnasium with 2 NBA-sized courts, high-performance training centre, 3 professional dance studios, golf centre, and a sports medicine clinic.[3]
