That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means RSU 75/MSAD 75-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. 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.
