Centre de services scolaire des Affluents has 30 of them, and Commission scolaire Sir-Wilfrid-Laurier and Centre de services scolaire des Samares share the others. Schooling in English is on offer at one of the 35; in Quebec, 10% of schools teach in it. Taken together, L'Assomption and its 3 km edge hold 27 elementary schools and 8 secondary schools.

Each board draws attendance areas: a child’s home address gives a designated school in each system. Families register with the board, and a school outside the area takes a child only if it has room.
English schools in Quebec
A certificate of eligibility opens the English public schools; most children qualify for French-language schools only.
Independent schools
Fees and admissions are each independent school’s own; the province covers a share of costs for those that meet its rules.

- The year. The province’s 2025-26 list.
- Boards and systems. Language, not faith, divides Quebec’s public schools: French service centres and English boards share the map.
