That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Jackson-Milton Local a distant remainder — means Jackson-Milton Local-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. 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.
