Administrative history

Named Edmonton Technical because the programs provided were Technical education to help prepare students for industrial careers. Edmonton Technical [old] was formerly street car barns on Syndicate Avenue (95 Street) and 109 Avenue that were repurposed in 1913 for the school. This building was able to provide ten classrooms, laboratories and workshops. During World War I it was used as an armed forces training centre. Edmonton Technical School [new] opened in the Old Market Building north of 107A Avenue on 101 Street. Edmonton Technical was a manual training centre for other high schools as well, as students from Victoria, Westmount and Eastwood could attend for half-day courses. Department of National Defense requested the use of the entire school for the War Emergency Training Plain in 1943, bringing an end to Edmonton Technical School.
