information from a sample of 1,699 public school districts on 
Alternative Schools and Programs for students at risk of educational

provide a snapshot of alternative schools and programs for students at 
risk of educational failure within the nation's public school 
districts. This follow up survey will provide information on schools 
and programs that use entities other than the school district to 
administer the programs and will collect information on the identities 
of these entities.
