What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. As the province lists them in 2025-26.
- Boards and systems. The French service centre and the English board each cover the whole territory with their own schools.
- What isn’t here. No province rates its schools by inspection, and enrolment covers one year (Ontario and Alberta only), so there is no trend.
- One school, two buildings. Where a school spans two buildings, each is listed, with its name in brackets.
- Which schools count. Counted: Saint-Wenceslas’s own schools and any within 3 km of its edge.
- The kinds of school. Elementary schools run from kindergarten to Grade 6 or 8, secondary ones to Grade 12; some cover every grade, and alternative, adult and online schools are listed apart.
