How children get a place in Saint-André
French-language schools
Eligibility comes from the parents: French as a first language, or French schooling in Canada; otherwise, the board’s admissions committee decides.
The neighbourhood school
Boards set boundaries for each school; living inside one guarantees a place there, and moving across one usually means a request.

What this data can and can’t tell you

- Which schools count. Counted: Saint-André’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- What isn’t here. Inspection reports with ratings don’t exist here, and the lists give enrolment for one year at most.
- Boards and systems. Boards here split by language only: English districts and a French-language board.
- The year. The schools are those in ODEF, 2019–22; check with the board for any opened since.
