If you have just moved to Ajax or your child is getting older and it’s time to begin choosing the right school. Whether they’re just starting in kindergarten or heading into high school—it can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry, we’re here to make the process a little easier by breaking down the information you need, for finding elementary schools in Ajax.
The rankings referenced here come from the Fraser Institute, which has been evaluating school performance across Ontario for over 20 years. While these scores offer helpful insight, it’s essential to look at each school individually. Lower rankings can sometimes reflect unique circumstances, such as a higher number of students with special learning needs or a significant population of students who are still learning English, which can affect standardized test results.
These variations don’t necessarily reflect the overall quality of education in Ajax—they’re simply snapshots of specific school communities and classroom dynamics.
So, let’s get started with a comparison, followed by a closer look at some of Ajax’s public and Catholic elementary schools.
There are 31 elementary schools and 5 secondary (high) schools in Ajax (scroll down to see the high schools).
Here are all the elementary schools in a table with highest to lowest ranking and scores for 2022-23:
