NOTE: Table excludes 2,654 schools (21 of these in outlying areas) for which no students were reported in membership. U.S. totals include the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Although type of school is a mutually exclusive category, many regular schools include special, vocational, or alternative education programs. Percentages may not add to 100 because of rounding. Total student membership is reported from the "State Nonfiscal Survey of Public Elementary/Secondary Education."
