The percentage of students who met the provincial standard in each assessment this school reported, beside the same figure for Ontario. These are results for one school year — not a score, a rank or a prediction.

Beside comparable schools

The province mixes every board, setting and language system together. These medians cover schools sitting the same assessment in the same year, at the same level, in the same language system, so they compare like with like. The number of schools in each cohort is in brackets.

Assessment	This school	Hamilton-Wentworth CDSB median	Hamilton median
Grade 3 Reading	94%	83% (49)	74% (124)
Grade 3 Writing	86%	72% (49)	64.5% (124)
Grade 3 Mathematics	80%	74% (49)	62% (124)
Grade 6 Reading	91%	88% (49)	85% (115)
Grade 6 Writing	89%	88% (49)	85% (115)
Grade 6 Mathematics	65%	52% (49)	45% (115)

Each figure is a median, not an average, and each cohort counts only the schools that published a result for that exact assessment in 2024–2025. Cohorts of fewer than 10 schools are not shown, because a median over a handful of schools moves too much to mean anything.

How to read this

EQAO assessed 6 measures at this school — reading, writing and mathematics, sat in Grades 3 and 6. Each is one cohort in one year. Results are suppressed wherever a cohort is too small to report. This site publishes no ranking or composite score, and a position above or below a median is not a measure of how good a school is: EQAO reports the share of students meeting a standard in one year, and that share tracks the circumstances of the families a school draws from as much as anything the school does.

Neighbourhood

No mapped neighbourhood for this address

This school's location falls outside every neighbourhood boundary the municipality publishes, so there is no neighbourhood page to link it to. That is a gap in the published boundaries rather than in the school's own record.

Rather than attach the nearest mapped area — the closest is kilometres away and the municipality draws no boundary between them — this page leaves the relationship out. Which names have no published boundary, and why, is set out on the data page.

Getting there

Hamilton is served by the HSR bus network, with the most frequent corridors running east–west across the lower city. Two GO stations sit in the city — Hamilton GO Centre downtown and West Harbour GO on the Lakeshore West line — and Aldershot GO just over the Burlington line is a common commuter station too. The escarpment limits north–south routes, so check the actual trip rather than the map distance.

Nearest GO station: Aldershot GO — about 5.8 km in a straight line
Local transit: HSR (Hamilton Street Railway)

The 5.8 km to Aldershot GO is a straight line from this school's Ministry-published coordinates — not a walking or driving time. Check the real trip at the times you travel.
