How to read these numbers
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. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
- Boards and systems. The board is the public body that runs a school; this province has English and French boards, each public or Catholic.
- The year. 2025/26, the latest open list.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
- Which schools count. The area is Magrath Heights plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
