What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. Bands compare within Alberta only: never a place in a league table.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. Public and Catholic boards are both publicly funded here, in English and in French; an independent school answers to no board.
- Which schools count. Every school inside Martindale’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
