What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Each school is elementary, secondary or all-grade by the grades it teaches; alternative, adult and online programs sit in a group of their own.
- Which schools count. Every school inside Rosedale’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- Boards and systems. A school’s system is its board’s: the language it teaches in, and whether the board is public or Catholic.
- The year. The open list of 2025/26.
- Bands, not ranks. The PAT shares at the acceptable standard and at excellence are each placed by fifths among Alberta’s schools.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
