*Table
includes 28 Department of Defense and 24 BIA school districts that are
technically federally operated agencies; this is in order to report data
for these agencies in the table.
NOTE: For states that did not provide a grade span, grade span was determined
by the highest and lowest grades served among all schools associated with
the district. "Other" includes all grade configurations not reported in
the specified categories and includes ungraded districts. Table excludes
357 regular school districts 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. Percentages of
less than 0.05 are rounded to 0.0.
