Notes: 1) School enrollment figures for 2005/2006
are preliminary. 2) Private enrollment includes home
schools. 3) County rankings for high-school
graduates continuing to higher education are subject
to revision. Data from the Indiana Department of
Education for Vigo County appear to include an
erroneous entry. Until the data has been corrected
by IDOE, Vigo will be removed from the rankings.
