What this data can and can’t tell you
- 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.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Beauharnois and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- Boards and systems. Language, not faith, divides Quebec’s public schools: French service centres and English boards share the map.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025-26.
- One school, two buildings. Buildings are listed separately in Quebec, so some schools appear twice.
- What isn’t here. Provinces don’t grade schools by inspection; class sizes and enrolment over time aren’t in the open lists.
