One campus shapes the city average

According to NCES CCD 2024-25, Granite Bay has more public-school enrollment than 46% of the 4,487 US cities in this directory. Granite Bay High enrolls 49.1% of Granite Bay's public-school students. That is enough concentration for one institution to pull the citywide enrollment, staffing, and Resource Index averages toward its own profile. The smaller campuses below should therefore be compared directly rather than inferred from the headline mean; their grade configurations and program footprints can be materially different even inside the same district.

The school portfolio is elementary-weighted

3 of Granite Bay's 6 listed schools are elementary campuses. That composition means citywide enrollment and staffing averages are influenced more by early-grade operating patterns than by the city's 1 middle and 1 high-school records. Families comparing later grades should rely on those individual rows rather than the all-school mean.

A small portfolio contains radically different campus scales

Granite Bay lists only 6 schools, yet reported enrollment runs from 16 to 2,036 students, a 127-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.

City enrollment: Top 54%
School count: Top 79%
Resource Index average: 20th percentile
Teacher staffing: 2nd percentile

Granite Bay High accounts for 49.1% of all Granite Bay public-school enrollment

That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Granite Bay a distant remainder — means Granite Bay-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.

Granite Bay school enrollment varies 127× across entities

Granite Bay school enrollment ranges from 16 students (lowest) to 2,036 students (highest), a spread of 2,020 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.

Granite Bay student-teacher ratio is 24.7:1 — high (typically associated with larger urban scale or staffing constraints that have widened the headcount gap)

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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
