Abstract: The purpose of this data collection is to meet the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 requirement for states and school districts to submit a school-by-school listing of school-level expenditures from state and local funds for the 2008-09 school year. These data will be used to examine the extent to which school-level education resources are distributed equitably within and across school districts.

Emergency Justfication: The Department is requesting approval on an emergency basis for this data collection by October 1, 2009. Approval is needed by September 30, 2009 so that states can inform LEAs of this reporting requirement, collect the required data from all LEAs that receive Title I funds, and compile and submit data to the U.S. Department of Education by March 31, 2010.
