- One school, two buildings. A school in two buildings appears twice, once per building, as the ministry lists them.
- The year. The provincial list for 2025-26.
- Boards and systems. The French service centre and the English board each cover the whole territory with their own schools.
- Which schools count. A 3 km band around Terrebonne’s outline is included, as it is for every town on the site.
- The kinds of school. The levels follow each school’s published grades: elementary below Grade 7 or 9, secondary above, all-grade when it runs the whole way.
