Definition

Students enrolled on the October (Survey 2) count date, all grades PK–12, as published in FLDOE's Membership by District and School by Grade file.

  • The state's Survey 2 (October) membership count: students enrolled on the count date, PK through 12, from the Membership by District and School by Grade file. Per-grade columns are stored as enrollment_oct_g<grade>.
  • Where a grade cell carries a suppression token but the numeric grade cells already sum to the published total, the token marks a grade not served and is stored as 0; otherwise the cell stays suppressed.

What is served

  • Years: 2016-17, 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21, 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26
  • 5,099 school-year cells across 571 schools; 51 stored as suppressed (publisher withheld)
  • Per-grade columns (enrollment_oct_gPK … g12) are stored alongside: 5,099 cells for kindergarten alone

What it cannot show

  • Membership is a headcount on one day; the funding FTE and the annual unduplicated enrollment are different, larger or smaller, numbers.
  • Charter schools are included and tagged; virtual programs are counted under their provider numbers.

Comparability across years

  • The state file's layout changes by year (sheet order, header row, blank versus zero, suppression token) but the count definition has not; ten years are loaded, 2016-17 through 2025-26.

How it was checked

Every served number runs through the four-check taxonomy described on the methodology page: (i) completeness, (ii) an exact re-read of the file by independent Python, (iii-b) a second publisher where one exists, (iv) recomputation of derived values.

(ii) Base case — closure track
