Definition

Economically disadvantaged data are based on a student's participation in one or more of the following state-administered programs: the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP); the Transitional Assistance for Families with Dependent Children (TAFDC); the Department of Children and Families' (DCF) foster care program; and students in families up to 133% of the federal poverty level enrolled in MassHealth (Medicaid). Counts come from computerized data matches of school enrollment rosters with these specific program membership lists.
