What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The list is Statistics Canada’s ODEF (2019–22): schools opened since are missing, and some closed since may still appear.
- Boards and systems. Boards here split by language only: English districts and a French-language board.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Grey 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.
