That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Pullman Community Montessori a distant remainder — means Pullman Community Montessori-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined.

When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Pullman Community Montessori chronic absenteeism rate is 51.5% — 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.
