Notes:

These comparisons show similar districts on the basis of district structure, wealth and enrollment. Other measures may be equally valid and yield different results. To include other districts, download the summary workbook available on this site, and go to the "compare" sheet.

District Wealth

Equalized Property Valuation per capita is total taxable value divided by U.S. Census population estimates for each city and town. Source: Mass. Dept of Revenue

Median Income Per Household 1999: U.S. Census Bureau.

Regional districts' figures on these two measures represent the weighted average of their member towns, based upon Oct 1 2006 enrollment.

Average rank in wealth is the mean of the two measures' high to low ranks.

Per Pupil Expenditures

Total fte pupils: include all in-district pupils regardless of town of residence, plus all tuitioned-out residents at special ed placements, charter schools, school choice districts, etc..

Total expenditures: total spending in operating categories, including tuition to other districts. All funding sources are included.
