What this data can and can’t tell you
- Bands, not ranks. Ontario’s results are whole percentages with small groups left out, so the page gives fifths, not ranks.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- The year. 2024-25, the latest open list.
- Boards and systems. Boards are set by language and, in Ontario, Alberta and Saskatchewan, by faith: public or Catholic.
- Which schools count. Inside Assiginack’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
