What this data can and can’t tell you
- The year. The open list is ODEF (2019–22), which may still show schools since closed.
- Boards and systems. A school’s board decides its language; the province funds no separate Catholic system.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
- Which schools count. The area is Shellbrook plus a 3 km margin around it, measured from its census outline.
- 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.
