Ceiba College Preparatory Academy accounts for 98.0% of all Ceiba College Preparatory Academy District student enrollment

Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff.

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.
