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

When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015).
