- Boards and systems. Each board covers a territory in one language and one system, public or Catholic; boards of different systems overlap.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Magnetawan or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
- 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.
