What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. Alberta publishes the share at each PAT standard and suppresses small groups, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
- 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.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025/26.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. Counted: Redstone’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
