Data status

6 of 6 national data layers are matched to this NCES district ID. Identity and school counts use NCES records. Academic estimates use SEDA, attendance uses EDFacts, finance uses NCES F-33, staffing and enrollment use 2023–24 NCES CCD where available, specialized support uses CRDC, and community poverty context uses Census SAIPE. Every detailed view preserves its reporting year.
