What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. Inside Roxton Pond’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- One school, two buildings. A school in two buildings appears twice, once per building, as the ministry lists them.
- What isn’t here. Ontario’s private schools aren’t in the open list; no province publishes inspection grades.
- Boards and systems. Since 2020, the French public network is run by service centres; the English boards kept their elected councils.
- The year. Schools as listed for 2025-26.
