The application defines urban/suburban/rural applications based on some definitions by the Census Bureau. How can I determine in which category our district fits?
To determine its urbanicity category, a school district (with the exception of BIA applicants applying as “tribal”) must use the district locale code-from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) National Public School and School District Locator Web page (http://nces.ed.gov/ccd/districtsearch/)-along with definitions established for rural, suburban, and urban in the SS/HS application (see Appendix A for definitions).
