That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Scholarship Prep District-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary.

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