How to read these numbers
What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Inside North River Heights’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- The kinds of school. Where a province publishes grades, the card gives them; elementary and secondary follow those grades.
- 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. Public schools come under a board of one language; independent schools are run privately.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
