Method and sources

Every field on this page comes from the 2023-24 Common Core of Data, published by the U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics. The state enrollment total is a sum over districts, and a district is included only where NCES released a figure for every one of its open schools. Districts carrying a withheld school figure are counted in the district and school counts but excluded from the enrollment total, which is why this page states how many districts the total covers rather than implying a complete census.
