Police place each report at the nearest intersection, so reports from another school close by can be counted here. École secondaire Michelle-O'Bonsawin and École élémentaire Michelle-O'Bonsawin and Greenwood Secondary School shares the building, so these reports may involve it. Each offence counts once, so one event can count more than once.
