NOTE: Instructional levels are Primary (low grade Prekindergarten
to 3, high grade up to 8); Middle (low grade 4 to 7, high grade
4 to 9); High (low grade 7 to 12, high grade 12 only); Other (any
configuration not falling within the previous three, including
ungraded schools). For states that did not provide a grade span,
grade span was determined by the highest and lowest grades in
which students were reported. Table excludes 2,427 schools (14
in outlying areas) for which no students were reported in membership.
U.S. totals include the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Percentages are rounded to the nearest tenth and may not add to
100.
