That dominant concentration means Gladstone Sd 115-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. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Gladstone Sd 115 school enrollment varies 5.4× across entities
Gladstone Sd 115 school enrollment ranges from 109 students (lowest) to 589 students (highest), a spread of 480 students.

Gladstone Sd 115 student-counselor ratio is 283:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Variation between sub-units within Gladstone Sd 115 is typically wider than the Gladstone Sd 115-aggregate figure suggests.
Gladstone Sd 115 chronic absenteeism rate is 47.0% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
