1 Includes most kindergarten and some nursery school enrollment. 2 Private school numbers are estimated on the basis of past data. 3 Private school numbers are from the Early Estimates survey. 4 Private school numbers are projected. NOTE: Some data have been revised from previously published figures. For private schools, it was assumed that numbers for elementary are the same as those in table 1 for grades K-8, and numbers for secondary are the same as those in table 1 for grades 9-12. Designation of grades as elementary or secondary varies from school to school. Detail may not sum to totals due to rounding.
