What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
- Which schools count. Every school inside La Salle’s outline or within 3 km of it, the rule used across the site.
- Boards and systems. The French-language board covers the whole province, the English districts one area each.
- The year. The schools are those in ODEF, 2019–22; check with the board for any opened since.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
