What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Schools are grouped by what they teach: elementary, secondary, every grade, and the alternative, adult and online programs.
- Which schools count. The area is Notre-Dame-des-Bois plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- Boards and systems. The French service centre and the English board each cover the whole territory with their own schools.
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- One school, two buildings. The ministry lists buildings, not schools: a two-building school has two entries here.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
