Photo: Sancho McCann from Vancouver · CC BY 2.0Silver Heights’s schools come under 6 different boards
St. James-Assiniboia School Division runs the most, 20 of them; Pembina Trails School Division, Arch. of Winnipeg Catholic Schools and Division scolaire franco-manitobaine run the rest. Schooling in French is on offer at one of the 32; in Manitoba, 3% of schools teach in it. Its 3 km reach takes in 24 elementary schools, 6 secondary schools and 2 schools for every grade, all of Silver Heights’s schooling. Because the province publishes no results school by school, towns in Manitoba aren’t graded on schools.

How children get a place in Silver Heights
The neighbourhood school
Each board draws attendance areas: a child’s home address gives a designated school in each system. Families register with the board, and a school outside the area takes a child only if it has room.
French-language schools
A child qualifies for a French-language school when a parent’s first language is French or a parent went to French school in Canada; an admissions committee can admit others.
The provinces’ education acts and the boards’ own admission policies; check with the board for a given address.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. Two systems share the province, English and French, each run by its own board or district.
- The year. Schools come from StatCan’s ODEF of 2019–22, so a recent opening or closure may not show.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Silver Heights or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
