National city placement

Compact system with teacher-dense staffing

According to NCES CCD 2024-25, Page has more public-school enrollment than 21% of the 4,487 US cities in this directory. Page is a comparatively small school market by total enrollment, yet its average student-teacher ratio is lower than most cities in the national comparison set. Small scale can make that staffing pattern easier to sustain, but it can also limit the breadth of specialized programs available at any one campus. The school list below shows whether students are concentrated in one combined-grade campus or distributed across separate elementary, middle, and high-school settings.

Secondary campuses occupy an unusually large share

4 of the 9 listed Page schools are classified as high schools, a substantial share of the local portfolio. Advanced-course access, counseling, and graduation-stage staffing therefore have more weight in the city Resource Index average than they do in an elementary-heavy system.

A small portfolio contains radically different campus scales

Page lists only 9 schools, yet reported enrollment runs from 1 to 727 students, a 727-fold range. In a portfolio this compact, the smallest record may be a specialized or nonstandard setting rather than a miniature version of the largest campus. That distinction affects how ratios and program fields should be read. Compare similarly configured grade levels first; combining the extremes into one city average conceals more than it explains.

Page High School accounts for 29.2% of all Page public-school enrollment

That dominant concentration means Page-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade level: High. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how districts allocate programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.

Page school enrollment varies 727× across entities

Page school enrollment ranges from 1 students (lowest) to 727 students (highest), a spread of 726 students. That ratio is an extreme outlier spread — among the widest gaps observed anywhere in this dataset. Per-school staffing and program breadth can differ sharply at opposite ends of that enrollment range, so the city average should not be treated as a typical campus.

Page reports 51.3% free-lunch eligibility

The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.

Page student-teacher ratio is 10.6:1 — low (typically associated with smaller schools or per-school staffing investment that often correlates with stronger per-student supports)

student-teacher ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE classroom teachers against total enrollment, push-in specialists, English-language aides, special-education co-teachers, and counselors are not included in most reporting Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.

1 of Page's 9 listed schools are charters

11% of the city's listed public-school campuses are reported as charter schools in NCES CCD. Charter status identifies a different governance arrangement; it does not establish admissions availability, academic quality, or the share of city students enrolled in those campuses.
