When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Windemere Park Charter Academy has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 76.8% 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).
