National city placement

Middle-of-corpus city profile

According to NCES CCD 2024-25, Mandeville has more public-school enrollment than 80% of the 4,487 US cities in this directory. Mandeville sits in the broad middle of the national city distribution rather than at a single obvious extreme. Its scale, average Resource Investment Index, and staffing position need to be read together: a middle placement on one measure does not cancel a stronger or weaker result on another. The percentile panel makes those dimensions explicit, and the school table shows where the city aggregate breaks into materially different campus profiles.

A full K–12 ladder sits inside the city boundary

Mandeville's list includes 4 elementary, 3 middle, and 3 high-school campuses, plus 4 combined-grade records. The city average spans every major grade stage, so the ranked table is more informative when read within level than as one interchangeable queue.

One district, but meaningful resource variation

Mandeville's schools share one district authority while their average Resource Investment Index ranks at the 87th percentile among listed cities. Shared governance removes one source of policy variation, but it does not erase campus differences by grade span or enrollment. The 16-point gap between Magnolia Trace Elementary School and Fontainebleau High School measures the remaining local spread. Use the district-level picture for common budget context, then compare the school components to see whether staffing, counseling, gifted-program reporting, or attendance accounts for each campus's position.

Mandeville High School accounts for 19.9% of all Mandeville public-school enrollment

That concentration means Mandeville-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.

Mandeville school enrollment varies 5.7× across entities

Mandeville school enrollment ranges from 349 students (lowest) to 2,006 students (highest), a spread of 1,657 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous school portfolio for a city this size. 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.

Mandeville operates one school district — a single-district system

Mandeville's listed schools share one district boundary, budget authority, and reporting chain. That makes citywide and districtwide governance easier to compare, but it does not make individual campuses uniform: grade configuration, staffing, programs, and student need can still vary materially within the same school district.

Mandeville student-teacher ratio is 16.0:1 — near the typical range (US average ~15.7) — citywide staffing is neither unusually lean nor unusually crowded by this measure

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 Variation between sub-units within Mandeville is typically wider than the Mandeville-aggregate figure suggests.
