What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The open list is ODEF (2019–22), which may still show schools since closed.
- Boards and systems. English and French boards share the province, each with its own schools; there are no separate Catholic boards here.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Which schools count. Inside Mitchell’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
