That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Escuela Avancemos a distant remainder — means Escuela Avancemos-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: elementary. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff.
