Additional Details
Both 2007 and 2008 estimates provided in the ranking table are for school districts defined as of January 1, 2008, and used to develop corresponding 2007-08 school year school district boundaries. The estimates are consistent with the population controls and income concepts used in the 2007 and 2008 American Community Survey (ACS) single-year estimates. The ACS single-year estimates cover only school districts 65,000 population or more whereas the estimates in the ranking table are for all school districts.
