What this data can and can’t tell you
- Which schools count. Schools inside Estevan and those within 3 km of its outline: a family nearby would weigh them all.
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- The year. The schools are those in ODEF, 2019–22; check with the board for any opened since.
- Boards and systems. Public schools come under a board of one language; independent schools are run privately.
- 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.
