The following table presents a breakdown by private school type of ineligible and eligible schools in the fourth-, eighth-, and twelfth-grade private school samples. There are considerable differences across private school types at grades 4, 8, and 12. Schools whose private school type was unknown at the time of sampling subsequently had their affiliation determined during data collection. Therefore, such schools are not broken out separately.
