District of Columbia
The District of Columbia is a unique jurisdiction, within the Mid-atlantic
region as well as the nation. For purposes of education, it is both
a State Education Agency (SEA) and an Local Education Agency (LEA).
It is at the same time a city unto itself with its own municipal
government and seat of the federal government. It is an entirely
urban area -- by far the most densely populated "state"
in the union. It has about 65,000 students and 167 schools.
