Aguila Elementary School accounts for 87.9% of all Aguila Elementary District (4249) student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Aguila Elementary District (4249)-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Aguila Elementary District (4249) has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 97.6% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
