Nearly all primary and secondary schools in the province of Nova Scotia are public schools maintained by the provincial government's (Department of Education ). While providing guidelines, the government divides administration of public education over seven regional school boards and one province wide school board serving the province's Acadians. Post-secondary schools consist of the provincial government operated ''community college'' system, Nova Scotia Community College and independently managed ''universities'' which receive some public funding. (For a list of post-secondary institutions see List of colleges and universities in Nova Scotia.) There are seven English-language school boards in Nova Scotia: *Annapolis Valley Regional School Board *Cape Breton - Victoria Regional School Board *Chignecto - Central Regional School Board *Halifax Regional School Board *South Shore Regional School Board *Strait Regional School Board *Tri-County Regional School Board There is a single province-wide French school board: *Conseil scolaire acadien provincial ==Description of Nova Scotia public grade schools== A ''high school'' in Nova Scotia has typically meant a 'senior high school', referring to a school responsible for the education of students grades 10 to (and including) 12 or grades 9 to 12. A ''junior high school'' is typically responsible for grades 7 to 9 or grades 6 to 8, where the latter type is more often called a ''middle school''. Some rural high schools combine junior and senior high schools, providing education for grades 7 to 12. An ''elementary school'' is responsible for the education of students from grade kindergarten (usually referred to in Nova Scotia as "grade primary") or grade 1 to grade 5 or 6. A number of Nova Scotian schools combine elementary or the later grades of elementary with junior high or the earlier grades of junior high to form what is referred to as a ''consolidated school''. (Note: The term 'consolidated' is also confusingly used in the naming of a few elementary schools too in the province). Finally, a few schools have all grades from kindergarten to 12. In summary prominent patterns by which Nova Scotian grade school students attend school are as follows: 1)elementary school, grades pr to 6; junior high school, grades 7 to 9; high school, 10 to 12 2)elementary school, grades pr to 5; middle school, grades 6 to 8; high school, 9 to 12 3)elementary school, grades pr to 6; junior and senior high school 7 to 12 4)consolidated school, grades pr to 9; high school, 10 to 12 5)elementary school, grades pr to 4; consolidated school, grades 5 to 9; high school, grades 10 to 12. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of schools in Nova Scotia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
