Figure 2. Actual and projected numbers for enrollment in elementary and secondary schools, by control of school: Fall 1995 through fall 2020

NOTE: Private school numbers include private nursery and prekindergarten enrollment in schools that offer kindergarten or higher grades. Since the biennial Private School Universe Survey (PSS) is collected in the fall of odd numbered years, private school numbers for alternate years are estimated based on data from the PSS. The private school numbers for 2009 are actual numbers from 2009–10 PSS. Some data have been revised from previously published figures. Mean absolute percentage errors of selected education statistics can be found in table A-2, appendix A. SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Common Core of Data (CCD), “State Nonfiscal Survey of Public Elementary/Secondary Education,” 1995–96 through 2008–09; Private School Universe Survey (PSS), selected years 1995–96 through 2009–10; and National Elementary and Secondary Enrollment Model, 1972–2008. (This figure was prepared February 2011.)
