What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Elementary means kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary up to Grade 12 (Secondary V in Quebec); a few schools take every grade.
- Which schools count. Inside Saint George’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- Boards and systems. A school’s board decides its language; the province funds no separate Catholic system.
- The year. ODEF, from 2019–22, is the only open list: newer schools may be missing.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
