Each year, the National Center for Education Statistics publishes this pocket summary of the annual "Projections of Education Statistics." The complete report contains information on projected enrollment at all ages, number of high school graduates, degrees conferred, classroom teachers, and public elementary and secondary school expenditures, with state-level tables on enrollment. This summary contains figures for 1986-87, estimates for 1997-98, and projections to 2008-09, with calculations of the percent of change from 1986-87 to 1997-98 and from 1997-98 to 2005-09. Tables present data for these periods for: (1) population by age; (2) elementary and secondary enrollment in public and private schools; (3) high school graduates from public and private schools; (4) classroom teachers in public and private schools; (5) public and private elementary and secondary pupil/teacher rations; (6) elementary and secondary public school expenditures; (7) higher education enrollment in public and private institutions; (8) earned degrees; and (9) higher education expenditures for public and private institutions. Technical notes explain the computation of projections. (SLD)
