What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The province’s 2025-26 list.
- Boards and systems. Each public school belongs to a French service centre or an English board, whichever covers its address.
- One school, two buildings. Buildings are listed separately in Quebec, so some schools appear twice.
- What isn’t here. There are no inspection ratings to show, and a single year of enrolment gives no trend.
- Which schools count. Each school is placed by its address point; those inside Pohénégamook or within 3 km of it are here.
- The kinds of school. Grades shown are the published range, from junior kindergarten (JK) upward.
