What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Hubley and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
