List of Waterloo Region, Ontario schools

This list of schools in Waterloo Region shows the colleges and universities, secondary schools, and elementary schools based in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

Currently, four school boards operate in Waterloo Region. Public schools with instruction in English are operated by the Waterloo Region District School Board and public schools with instruction in French are operated by the Conseil scolaire de district du Centre-Sud-Ouest. Catholic schools with instruction in English are operated by the Waterloo Catholic District School Board and those with instruction in French are operated by the Conseil scolaire de district catholique Centre-Sud.
