What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside South Terwillegar or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- Bands, not ranks. Fifths are worked out among every Alberta school with a PAT result, then averaged per school.
- The year. The provincial list for 2025/26.
- Boards and systems. The board is the public body that runs a school; this province has English and French boards, each public or Catholic.
