How should I read the EQAO results for John Sweeney Catholic Elementary School?

They are provided for information only and are not a ranking of school quality — academic outcomes are just one of many factors families may wish to consider.

School information — including school boundaries, eligibility, EQAO results, programs and enrolment — is provided for general informational purposes only and may be inaccurate or out of date. Boundaries, eligibility, programs and enrolment can change at any time. EQAO figures reflect past assessment results, are shown per test relative to the city-wide average, are not a ranking, and do not predict any student's outcome. Always confirm current school boundaries and eligibility directly with the applicable school board before relying on this information.
