DUNDEE CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 54.6% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015).
