— District does not classify students
as ungraded.
1Includes outlying areas,
Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Department of Defense schools.
2Student distribution by
type of school is based on membership in the schools of the school
district. This count may differ somewhat from the count of students
receiving educational services from the school district reported
in table 1. It may also differ from the count of students on table
3 because table 5 is based on the reported students by grade and
table 3 is based on the reported total student count.
