How children get a place in Trois-Rivières

Registration happens with the board, not the school; the board names the school for the address.
Independent schools
Independent schools here charge fees but receive some provincial funding if they meet its standards.

What this data can and can’t tell you
- One school, two buildings. A school in two buildings appears twice, once per building, as the ministry lists them.
- What isn’t here. Enrolment is a single year, where published at all, and no inspectorate rates schools.
- 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.
- Which schools count. Schools inside Trois-Rivières and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Each school is elementary, secondary or all-grade by the grades it teaches; alternative, adult and online programs sit in a group of their own.
