All of them belong to Centre de services scolaire de la Côte-du-Sud. We don’t grade schools in Quebec. The reason: the ministry publishes its success rates by school service centre, not school by school.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- What isn’t here. Missing: inspection ratings (no province gives them), enrolment trends and Ontario’s private schools.
- One school, two buildings. A school in two buildings appears twice, once per building, as the ministry lists them.
- 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.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
- Which schools count. The page takes in schools within Saint-Damien-de-Buckland and up to 3 km past its boundary, so a school just over the line is still here.
