| † Not applicable. # Rounds to zero. !Interpret data with caution. 1 Enrollment is based on students regularly enrolled in the districts. Enrollments include duplicated counts of students, since districts were instructed to count a student enrolled in each course in which he or she was enrolled. 2 Combined or ungraded schools are those in which the grades offered in the school span both elementary and secondary grades or that are not divided into grade levels. NOTE: Percentages are based on unrounded numbers. Percentages are based on the estimated 89,310 public schools in the nation in 2002–03. For the FRSS study sample, there were 3 cases for which district enrollment size was missing and 112 cases for which poverty concentration was missing. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding or missing data.
