That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of South Bronx Early College Academy Charter School a distant remainder — means South Bronx Early College Academy Charter School-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: middle.

When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
South Bronx Early College Academy Charter School has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 93.1% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Eligibility here is a supermajority of the population — well past the 75% concentration-grant threshold that unlocks extra funding on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
