- The year. An older list, StatCan’s ODEF of 2019–22, is used here.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- Which schools count. Each school is placed by its address point; those inside Neepawa or within 3 km of it are here.
- The kinds of school. Elementary and secondary come from the grades each school offers; a school offering both counts as all-grade.
