Abstract	This 1984 survey was conducted to obtain data on the characteristics of public school students in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The 3,510 school districts selected to participate were statistically sampled from approximately 16,000 U.S. school districts, and the schools within the selected districts were subsampled: (1) all special education, vocational, and disciplinary schools, and (2) a statistical sample of remaining schools. The national summaries of data are divided into 12 statistical tables. Two lines of data are presented: actual reported, computed by aggregating the district level from each state (Tables 2-12), and projected data, computed from the reported data using sampling weights for each district (Table 1). The data are summarized by Office of Civil Rights client populations--American Indian or Alaskan Native; Asian or Pacific Islander; Hispanic; Black; White; male; and female. Table 1 (projected) and Table 2 (reported) present summaries in the following areas: enrollment; suspensions; corporal punishment; gifted-talented; educable mentally retarded; trainable mentally retarded; speech impaired; seriously emotionally disturbed; specific learning disability (data on students with limited English proficiency--LEP--given in these five areas of special education only); bilingual programs (not broken down by sex); and graduates. Full-time and part-time projected enrollment data is given for programs in the above five areas of special education and in: hard of hearing; deaf; visually handicapped; orthopedically impaired; other health impaired; deaf-blind; and multihandicapped. Special education is further subdivided by children: awaiting evaluation; identified as requiring special education; and receiving special education either in the school district or in a nondistrict facility. Also provided is enrollment by sex in both single-sex and mixed-sex classes for: home economics; industrial arts; and physical education in grades 7-9. Table 2 additionally presents classroom data by race/ethnicity. Table 3 examines school desegregation. Tables 4-6 examine minority/non-minority participation in various programs or activities (suspensions and corporal punishment, gifted/talented, and special education). Tables 7-12 present data on: classroom desegregation; analysis of LEP pupils needs and services; special education needs and services by percent of enrollment; amount of time spent in special education programs; and analysis of the distribution of single-sex classes. Survey instrument is appended. (AA)
