That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Gateway Regional High School District a distant remainder — means Gateway Regional High School District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.
