Braemar School is truly a hidden gem located in a quiet residential area in the southeast quadrant of the city of Edmonton. The school itself is a bright and sprawling campus surrounded by a greenbelt that encompasses a square city block of parkland. The school was established and is championed by Edmonton Public Schools for the express purpose of providing an education in a supportive environment exclusively for pregnant and parenting teens ranging from 13 to 20 years of age.
