Best Schools in North York (Public)

Last updated on December 10, 2019 by Susi Kostyniuk

The SUSI Rankings are surely the most reliable when determining the rankings for the best schools in North York, in our informed opinion. This city generally has elementary schools that rank a little better than average compared to the rest of the schools in Ontario (comparing EQAO pass-rates), faring especially well in the east and central regions. There are 53 public elementary schools in North York, including one all-French Immersion school (Lester B Pearson). (For Catholic schools, go here.)

SusiHomes classifies schools (for their clients) into the following four groups:
Premium Recommendations

Where can I find the full list of North York public school rankings?

Our Full rankings and Recommendations are completely available to all of Susi’s clients for their personal use. Our EQAO calculations, Teacher Support rankings, and Diversity numbers, however, are still available for most North York public elementary schools, and a list of these schools can be found above.

How do I find a home in a recommended school district?

It’s simple. When looking for a great home in a great school district, not only do rankings have to be measured, but also quality and safety of the neighbourhood, and of course the happiness YOU feel with your home! When you have a young family, there is so much to consider.

Let SusiHomes help you. We specialize in helping young families locate their best home possible that is in a recommended school district, and is also in a recommended neighbourhood. We can help you navigate, and plan for things like French Immersion in North York and North York high school rankings, as well. We are also the only Realtors in North York that have specific demographics for EACH, INDIVIDUAL school district. This kind of information can be very useful to young, home-seeking parents.
