How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. The area is Royal Gardens plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- The year. The province’s 2025/26 list.
- 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.
- Bands, not ranks. Top fifth means a result among the best fifth of Alberta’s schools; the card shows a school’s average fifth.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
