What this data can and can’t tell you
- Boards and systems. The French-language board covers the whole province, the English districts one area each.
- The year. The list is Statistics Canada’s ODEF (2019–22): schools opened since are missing, and some closed since may still appear.
- What isn’t here. What no open list gives: inspection grades, several years of enrolment, and Ontario’s private schools.
- The kinds of school. An all-grade school teaches from kindergarten through high school; elementary and secondary schools split those years.
- Which schools count. A school counts when it sits inside Foam Lake or less than 3 km beyond its edge.
