PreK-12 入學率和人口統計（2024-2025 年）

雖然美國PreK-12 入學率已穩定，但仍有約120 萬名學生低於疫情前的水平（2019 年秋季為5,070 萬名學生）（從2013 年增至2022 年秋季為4,960 萬名）。

本報告分析了美國 PreK-12 入學趨勢，包括總體入學趨勢以及主要細分市場（地區、州、年級和社會經濟水平）的詳細資訊。 它也不僅揭示了公立學校的入學趨勢，還揭示了私立學校、特許學校、天主教學校、虛擬學校的入學趨勢，以及各州接受特殊教育的學生比例。 此外，更廣泛的人口趨勢——包括預計入學率（到2028 年）、畢業率、雙重入學計劃率和出生率——以及青年人口和人口狀況、學校選擇、小額教育、普及學前班計劃以及涵蓋的連結性趨勢，有關英語學習者和移民、無家可歸學生等的數據。

In addition to providing overall numbers, the report also breaks down enrollment data by key segments: geographic region, state, grade levels and socio-economic levels. It also examines enrollment trends not just for public schools, but for private, charter, Catholic and virtual schools as well. Also uncovered are the percentage of students in special education, broken down by state.

The comprehensive report highlights information on enrollment projections through 2028; graduation rates, dual enrollment program rates, broader population trends such as birth rates; youth population and population state; school choice, micro schooling, universal PreK programs, connectivity trends, English language learners and immigrations, data on homeless students and more.
