Oh, I don't think you will be bored in Ottawa. Lots of things to do. Check out these sites for things to do around the nations capital.

Here's a link to the Ottawa School Board....it should give you some info on schools in the area.

Don't forget the Catholic separate board (which shouldn't exist and they should all be under the same secular system, IMHO):

Best high school depends on what you're looking for. Lisgar is good (Matthew Perry, Chandler from Friends, went there). Ashbury is the high end private school. Glebe is also good. Canterbury is great for arts (Arcade Fire did a private show there). Generally the standard of education is excellent.

Ottawa isn't New York or anything, but it can still be a pretty fun town, the Market area and Elgin on weekends in particular. If you're even remotely outdoorsy it's a really great city.

Otherwise Montreal is less than two hours away. Montreal can be crazy fun, but better if you know someone who lives or has lived there who's into the same scene and speaks a bit of French if you don't. The shopping, particularly fashion, is much better in Montreal.
