J.H. Picard School is an elementary/junior/senior high school located on 99th street in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is well known for being the only catholic school in Western Canada that provides complete French Immersion education from kindergarten to grade 12. It was established in 1972, to replace l'Académie Assomption, a private girls school. In 1984, J.H. Picard moved to its current location on 99th street, and has since provided an immersive French program for thousands of students.
