#Rounds to zero.

1 Totals differ from those reported in other tables because this table represents data reported by schools rather than by states or school districts. Percentage distribution and average enrollment calculations exclude data for schools not reporting enrollment.

2 Includes elementary, secondary, combined elementary/secondary, and other schools.

3 Includes schools beginning with grade 6 or below and with no grade higher than 8.

4 Includes schools with no grade lower than 7.

5 Includes schools beginning with grade 6 or below and ending with grade 9 or above.

6 Includes special education, alternative, and other schools not reported by grade span.

7 Excludes special education schools, vocational schools, and alternative schools.

8 Data are for schools reporting their enrollment size. Enrollment data were available for 94,164 out of 98,793 schools in 2006-07, 94,775 out of 98,916 in 2007-08, and 94,820 out of 98,706 in 2008-09.
