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. A school’s board decides its language; the province funds no separate Catholic system.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Which schools count. The area is Chalmers plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
