- Boyle Street Education Centre (BSEC) is a non-profit public charter high school in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. The Boyle Street Education Centre opened as a charter school in September 1996. The Education Centre grew out of six years of Boyle Street Co-op experience providing an alternative education program. The students, ranging from ages fourteen to nineteen, often do not succeed in mainstream education programs due to traumatic experiences in their early years. The Boyle Street Education Centre offer programs that engage high risk and out-of-school youth in the learning process and provide each student an opportunity for the successful attainment of the learning expectations as established by Alberta Learning.
