School Enrollment

About School Enrollment

School enrollment captures the population who report being enrolled in a regular school. A regular school advances a person towards an elementary school certificate, high school diploma, or college, university, or a professional school (such as law or medicine) degree.

The Census Bureau collects data on school enrollment in a number of different surveys and depending on your needs, one survey may be more suitable than another.

• American Community Survey
• Current Population Survey
• Survey of Income and Program Participation
• Decennial Census
