What this data can and can’t tell you
- 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 Lillooet plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025/26.
- Bands, not ranks. Top fifth means a result among the best fifth of BC’s schools on that measure; the card shows a school’s average fifth.
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
