1 National totals do not include data for Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) schools. In fall 2014, there were 10,245 American Indian/Alaska Native ELL program participants in BIE schools.

2 Projected.

3 For 2009, data on students of Two or more races are included in the totals but are not shown separately. Only a small number of states reported these data, and they are not comparable to data for 2010 and later years.

4 Includes imputations for missing data.

5 Enrollment base for percentage of enrollment is projected.

NOTE: Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Detail may not sum to totals because racial/ethnic categories were not reported for some students and because of rounding.
