Source: EQAO 2024–25 results as published by the Ministry of Education. Each figure is the share of students meeting the provincial standard; "above" or "below" means more than 3 percentage points from the Ontario figure for the same assessment. These describe a cohort of students, not any individual, and are not a ranking.

Three-year change is published by the Ministry of Education: the difference in percentage points between the 2024–2025 and 2022–2023 assessments. Each assessment is written by a different group of students, and at a school this size a single grade is a few dozen students, so a few points can reflect who wrote it rather than a change at the school. EQAO does not report a result where fewer than 10 students wrote.

Results are the percentage of students who met or exceeded the provincial standard, as published by the Ministry of Education. A dash means no result was published for that year: EQAO does not report a result where fewer than 10 students wrote. No provincial assessment ran in 2019-20 or 2020-21, so those years are blank for every school and are never joined across.

Common questions

What is the Boston Public School catchment?
The Boston Public School catchment — also called its attendance boundary — is the area of addresses zoned for Boston Public School by Grand Erie DSB. DistrictIQ maps the board-published boundary so you can check any address and browse the homes for sale inside it.
How do I check whether an address is zoned for Boston Public School?
Enter the address in the boundary checker on this page — it tests the point against Grand Erie DSB's published attendance boundary for Boston Public School and tells you whether the address is zoned for it. To check every school an address is zoned for at once, find your school by address. Always confirm current zoning with Grand Erie DSB before you buy or rent.
What grades does Boston Public School serve?
Boston Public School serves JK-8 (elementary). It is part of Grand Erie DSB.
Does Boston Public School offer French Immersion or other program tracks?
Boston Public School offers Regular Track. Program catchments can differ from the regular attendance boundary — confirm eligibility directly with Grand Erie DSB.
Can school catchments change?
Yes. School boards periodically run boundary (accommodation) reviews and can redraw catchments as enrolment shifts or new schools open. DistrictIQ reflects Grand Erie DSB's current published boundary, but always confirm zoning directly with the board before making a purchase decision. How Ontario attendance boundaries work
Does living in Boston Public School's catchment guarantee a spot?
Not automatically. Falling inside the attendance boundary is the basis for enrolment, but it is not an absolute guarantee — placement still depends on school capacity, program availability such as French Immersion, and board policy. Always confirm current school boundaries and registration directly with Grand Erie DSB.

School & assessment data

EQAO results are provided for informational purposes only and should not be interpreted as a ranking of school quality. Academic outcomes are only one factor families may wish to consider. EQAO results shown reflect the 2024–2025 assessment.

School and assessment data is sourced from the Ontario Ministry of Education, the Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO), Ontario Open Data, and the applicable public and Catholic district school boards across the regions we cover (Southern Ontario).

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.
