Getting a place
How children get a place in Lake Bonavista
French-language schools
French-language boards admit the children of rights-holders under section 23 of the Charter (a parent whose first language is French, or who was schooled in French in Canada), and may admit others through an admissions committee.
Independent schools
Independent schools here charge fees but receive some provincial funding if they meet its standards.
Catholic schools
The province funds Catholic separate schools beside the public ones. Each separate board sets its own admission rules, usually giving Catholic families first place.
The neighbourhood school
Families enrol through the board, which assigns the school serving their street; transfers depend on space.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Each school is placed by its address point; those inside Lake Bonavista or within 3 km of it are here.
- The kinds of school. The kind of school is what its province lists: elementary, secondary or both.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
- Bands, not ranks. A suppressed result gives no band; a school with both measures averages its fifths.
- The year. The 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. Boards come in one language each, and where the province funds Catholic schools, as public or Catholic; independent schools stand outside them.
