What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The 2025/26 list.
- Boards and systems. English and French, public and Catholic: the board decides the system, and the address decides the school.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
- Bands, not ranks. The fifths are of schools, not students: a small school counts as much as a large one.
- Which schools count. Counted: Rosscarrock’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
