1National totals do not include data for Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) schools. In fall 2010, the most recent year for which BIE data are available, there were 12,130 American Indian/Alaska Native ELL program participants in BIE schools.

2Projected.

3For 2009, data on students of Two or more races are included in the totals but are not shown separately. Only a small number of states reported these data, and they are not comparable to data for 2010 and later years.

4Includes imputations for missing data.

5Enrollment base for percentage of enrollment is projected.

NOTE: Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Detail may not sum to totals because racial/ethnic categories were not reported for some students and because of rounding.
