What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. The area is Saint-Félicien plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- The kinds of school. Kindergarten to Grade 8 is elementary, Grade 9 to 12 secondary, though the split varies by province and board.
- The year. The province’s school list, 2025-26.
- Boards and systems. Quebec organises public schools by language: service centres in French, school boards in English; private schools have neither.
- One school, two buildings. The ministry lists buildings, not schools: a two-building school has two entries here.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
