†District does not classify students as ungraded.
|
*Student 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.
There are only three districts in which the counts differ between
table 3: Jefferson County, KY, Boston School District, MA and
Washoe County School District, NV.

|
NOTE: The universe for this table includes outlying
areas, Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Department of Defense schools.
