I. Introduction to the NCES Common Core of Data National Public Education Financial
Survey (NPEFS), School Year 2009–10 (Fiscal Year 2010), Provisional Version 1a File
This documentation is for the provisional version 1a file of the National Center for Education
Statistics’ (NCES) Common Core of Data (CCD) National Public Education Financial Survey
(NPEFS) for school year 2009–10, fiscal year 2010 (FY 10). It contains a brief description of the
data collection along with information required to understand and access the data file.
Congress authorizes NCES to collect these data through the Education Sciences Reform Act (20
U.S.C. § 9543). NCES and the Governments Division of the U.S. Census Bureau collaborate to
collect public school system finance data, with the Census Bureau acting as the primary collection
agent for NPEFS.
NPEFS provides state aggregate finance data for revenues and expenditures for public elementary
and secondary education. NPEFS data are useful to (1) chief officers of state education agencies;
(2) policymakers in the executive and legislative branches of federal and state governments; (3)
education policy and public policy researchers; (4) the press, and (5) citizens interested in
information about education finance.
State education agencies (SEAs) in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and four
U.S. Island Areas (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands,
and the U.S. Virgin Islands) report state aggregate finance data to the NPEFS program. The data
file is organized by state or jurisdiction and contains revenue data by funding source, expenditure
data by function and object,1 and average daily attendance (ADA) data. The file also includes
total student membership data from the SY 2009–10 CCD State Nonfiscal Survey of Public
Elementary/Secondary Education final version 1b file.2
The CCD is a national statistical database of information that describes all public elementary and
secondary schools and school districts. The CCD consists of six annual surveys: the Public
Elementary/Secondary School Universe Survey, the Local Education Agency Universe Survey,
the State Nonfiscal Survey of Public Elementary/Secondary Education, the National Public
Education Financial Survey (NPEFS), the School District Finance Survey (F-33), and the
Teacher Compensation Survey (TCS). The principal users of CCD fiscal data are the federal
government, the education research community, state and local government officials (including
school boards and LEA administrators), and the general public.
II. User’s Guide
The FY 10 NPEFS data file contains 56 records (one for each state or jurisdiction). Each record
contains 314 fields (4 record identification fields, 155 data fields, and 155 imputation flag
fields). The record layout is provided in Appendix A.

Function is defined as a category of expenditure defining the activity supported by the service or commodity
bought, while object is defined as a category of expenditure defining the service or commodity bought. For more
definitions of terms used in this report, please see Appendix B–Glossary.

File versions
NCES maintains strict version control of CCD files. The version is identified by one numeric
character and one alphabetic character. The number corresponds with the release version (e.g., 1
is the first release, 2 is the second release, etc.). The letter “a” also corresponds to a public
release.4 For School Year 2009-10 (FY 2010), the “1a” file is the first provisional file release.
NCES releases a provisional file (Version 1a) after a publication using the data has been
released. (NCES standards require that an NCES publication using the data be released before
the data are released) Data in provisional data files have undergone an intensive review and
editing process. NCES may update the file if SEAs report revised data to address errors in the
provisional data file.
The data source for the First Look report entitled Revenues and Expenditures for Public
Elementary and Secondary Education; School Year 2009-10 (Fiscal Year 2010) is the FY10
NPEFS provisional data file. This First Look provides users with an opportunity to access
provisional NPEFS data that have been fully reviewed, edited, and imputed. Final data,
including revisions to the provisional data submitted by the SEAs after the close of data
collection, will be available during the following collection year.
In subsequent fiscal years, preliminary NPEFS data will be released in an effort to provide
earlier access to the dataset. The preliminary data will be subject to one round of data review
and editing. The release of preliminary data will be followed by a release of provisional data.
The provisional data will be an update to the previously released preliminary data, and subject
to a more extensive review and editing process. Revisions submitted after the provisional data
file is locked will be incorporated in the final file for each fiscal year. Final data files will be
released at the time of the release of preliminary data for the following year.

The first seven characters indicate the file contents and year, and the last two characters indicate
the file version. “Stfis” stands for state fiscal, “10” stands for FY 10, “1” indicates that the file is
ready for initial release by NCES. The FY10 NPEFS provisional data file is termed Stfis101a.
A. Survey Methodology
SEAs in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and four U.S. Island Areas
(American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S.
Virgin Islands) participate in the NPEFS program. NCES collects data annually from SEAs
under the authority of the Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, 20 U.S.C. 9543, which
authorizes NCES to gather data on the financing of education.
SEAs appoint state fiscal coordinators to work with NCES and Census to provide accurate and
comparable data across states and jurisdictions. NCES and Census provide annual training
workshops for state fiscal coordinators that are designed to improve the efficiency and efficacy
of reporting NPEFS data. The annual workshops include an overview of the NPEFS survey and
reporting and editing processes; detailed information about the data items that comprise the
surveys; and discussion of how to coordinate the NPEFS survey with state data systems.
The local education agencies (LEAs) report district level NPEFS data to the SEAs. Prior to
reporting NPEFS data, SEAs compile fiscal data from reports submitted by local education
agencies (LEAs) that operate public schools. SEAs may examine and edit these reports. SEAs
also include revenues and expenditures for any state-run schools, such as special education
programs or prison schools serving inmates under the age of 20. NCES and SEAs work
cooperatively to ensure comparability between the data items requested and reported.
In addition to the state fiscal coordinator, each SEA assigns a certifying official5 who certifies
that the data constitutes a true and full report of revenues, expenditures, and student attendance
during the regular school year and for summer school for the public elementary and secondary
schools.
The FY 10 NPEFS data collection opened on February 28, 2011 and closed on September 6,
2011.
Missing and non-applicable data

5

NCES requests that the certifying official be a fiscal official at the highest level in the SEA. The individual
designated as the authorized state official must have been approved in writing by the Chief State School Officer
(CSSO) (US Department of Education 2010).

Missing data are reported as “-1” in the data file; and non-applicable data are reported as “-2.”6
The NCES National Public Education Financial Survey FY 2011 Instruction Manual requests
that states report “0” for data items for which no activity has occurred and missing (“-1”) for
items for which activity has occurred, but for which data are missing. In some instances, a “-1”
may have been reported when there was no activity. Conversely, a “0” may have been reported
when, in fact, there was some activity. When producing the final file, NCES edits some “-1” and
“0” responses (e.g., teacher salaries reported as “0” were edited to “-1.”). If a data item does not
meet NCES data quality standards, the data are reported as -9. This value would only occur with
numeric values.
Average daily attendance (ADA) data and student membership counts
The report from SEAs includes attendance, revenue, and expenditure data from which NCES
determines the average State per-pupil expenditure (SPPE) for elementary and secondary
education, as defined in section 9101(2) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of
1965, as amended (ESEA) (20 U.S.C. 7801(2)). In addition to utilizing the SPPE data as general
information on the financing of elementary and secondary education, the Secretary uses these
data directly in calculating allocations for certain formula grant programs, including, but not
limited to, Title I, Part A of the ESEA, Impact Aid, and Indian Education programs.7 SPPE is
calculated by dividing net current expenditures by ADA.
NPEFS has two different types of attendance data. Title I of the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965 (as amended by Title I of the Improving America’s Schools Act of 1994)
requires SEAs to collect and report ADA data. ADA is the average daily attendance for the
school year. Pursuant to Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, SEAs report
ADA data in accordance with state law. Average daily attendance (ADA) is defined by state law
or regulations. ADA data in the NPEFS data file are not comparable across states because some
states use their own ADA definitions and others use the NCES definition.
In the absence of state law or regulations, NCES provides an alternative method to submit ADA.
NCES calculates ADA by summing the counts of resident students attending public school each
day of the school year and then dividing by the total number of days that school is in session
during the school year. The NCES definition requires every school or school district in a state to
collect attendance every day it is in session, and to record the number of days it is in session.
Membership is also part of the NPEFS file, which is collected by the State Nonfiscal Survey of
Public Elementary/Secondary Education. Membership is defined as the count of students on the
current roll taken on the school day closest to October 1, by using either the sum of original
entries and re-entries minus total withdrawals or the sum of the total present and the total absent.
Student membership data from the 200910 CCD State Nonfiscal Survey of Public
Elementary/Secondary Education are included in the 1a data file as a more comparable student
6

For example, in states where none of the school districts have independent tax-raising authority, the variables
Local Revenue Property Tax (R1A) and Local Revenue Nonproperty Tax (R1B) are reported as “-2.”

count. The variable Student Membership (MEMBR09) is the count of students enrolled on or
about October 1, 2009. Because membership has a consistent definition among states, NCES
uses membership, rather than average daily attendance, in the calculation of expenditures per
pupil in NPEFS reports.
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Data
In February of 2009, Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
(ARRA). The ARRA legislation allocated education funds directly to the states.8 As a result of
the ARRA, NCES added seven data items to NPEFS in order to collect and analyze data
pertaining to Title I, Impact Aid, and other ED funds. The seven additional data items provide
the necessary detail to report total ARRA expenditures and their functional allocations, such as
for classroom instruction or school construction9 (Office of the Federal Register 2009). NCES
collected ARRA data for FY 09, FY 10, and FY 11 in the NPEFS collection. NCES will
continue to collect seven data items on NPEFS, pursuant to the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA)10 up and until FY14 if necessary. The ARRA data items will be
completely removed from NPEFS when SEAs expend all Recovery Act funds, either through
formula or competitive grants.11
NCES crosswalk software
Since the FY 89 data collection, the US Census Bureau has been utilizing “crosswalk” software
to assist states in their reporting and to improve the comparability of data across states. This
software converts a state’s existing accounting reports to uniform federal standards, as described
in the NCES accounting handbook, Financial Accounting for Local and State School Systems:
2009 Edition (Allison, Honegger, and Johnson 2009). NCES reviews and validates the protocols
of states that do not use this crosswalk software to convert their state reports to federal standards.
The following states used crosswalk software provided by NCES in the FY 10 collection:
Alabama, California, Georgia, Illinois, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico,
New York, North Dakota, Oregon, South Carolina, and South Dakota.
NCES edit checks
Pursuant to the NCES statistical standards, the CCD survey staff engages in data editing, which
is an iterative and interactive process that includes procedures for detecting and correcting errors
in the data.

The Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) allows grantees to carry over 1
additional year any Federal Education funds that were not obligated in the period for which they were appropriated.
For grants that are forward-funded, grantees can have up to 27 months to obligate appropriated funds beginning as
early as July1of the federal fiscal year.

After an SEA submits the NPEFS data, the CCD survey staff conducts a comprehensive review
of the data and edit checks. These checks include but are not limited to:

trend analysis for multiple years;
large value and percentage fluctuations;
zero dollar values;
appropriate usage of data flags;
sum checks;
comparison of record layouts against the previous FY data file;
comparisons of membership between the state non-fiscal files and the NPEFS file;
comparison of min/max/mean of all numeric data items to ensure the percentage changes
of the means between the previous and current year’s data are in a reasonable range;
and adequate comments from respondents explaining their data.

Pursuant to NCES Standard Statistical Standard 4-1, the data are “checked for credibility based
on range tolerances to determine if responses fall within a pre-specified reasonable range,” and
are properly documented. The data are also checked “for consistency based on checks across
variables within individual records for non-contradictory responses.”
The staff prepares an edit report that includes the results from these tests. Notification of any
arithmetic errors and comments containing NCES’ understanding of specific missing data items
are also included with the edit report.
States are asked to correct arithmetic errors, verify or correct information on missing items, and
explain any extraordinary changes from the previous year’s data. NCES or the Census Bureau
may make requests for clarification, reconciliation or other inquiries pertaining to the data. SEAs
can respond directly to these requests for clarification and/or reconciliation or may on their own
initiative resubmit data to resolve data issues.12 Data that remain missing or uncorrected are
imputed based on values derived from other “fully reporting”13 states or other related data
elements from within the state. Research has been conducted to determine the methodology that
is best suited for each variable. The current use of the Herriot method is not always the best; the
use of time series methods should be considered for some variables.
Student membership edits
Each school year SEAs report student membership counts by grade on the CCD State Nonfiscal
Survey of Public Elementary/Secondary Education. The NPEFS data file includes total student
membership reported on the State Nonfiscal Survey that includes grades prekindergarten through
grade 12 (plus ungraded). If the reported fiscal data excludes prekindergarten programs, total
membership should also exclude prekindergarten membership. As part of the collection process,
NCES asks SEAs to review student membership data from the State Nonfiscal Survey and verify
that the membership data are consistent with the programs covered in the revenues and

that the state fiscal data reported in NPEFS excluded prekindergarten programs. In these three
states, the NPEFS total student membership variable excludes prekindergarten membership.
Illinois and Wisconsin did not report finance data for charter schools in the FY 10 NPEFS
survey. NCES edited student membership for Illinois and Wisconsin by excluding students from
districts where all associated schools are charter schools.
B. Imputations
Imputation is a procedure that uses available information and some plausible assumptions to
derive substitute values for missing values in a data file (NCES 2003). Currently, the Herriot
imputation methodology is used to impute for missing items. For an allocation, the Herriot
method calculates the average proportion of the total from the states for each of the detailed
variables. This average is divided by the sum of the averages from each of the detailed variables
and is rescaled to 1 by dividing by the sum of the detail averages. The purpose of imputations is
to provide a complete data set to allow for both cross sectional and longitudinal analysis, as well
as comparability of data across states.
Imputations modify values for cases or records where data are not reported (missing) or are
incorrectly reported. In some cases a state may not be able to track funds for a certain program or
purpose. When these data elements are imputed, CCD staff also increases the appropriate totals
and subtotals to include the imputed data element. In other cases, states are able to provide a
subtotal but are unable to provide more specific details. The imputed allocation of these subtotals
does not affect the totals or subtotals.
SEAs inform Census where data are included so that funds are deducted and distributed
appropriately. SEAs review the results of the imputations imposed and certify the imputed
value’s reasonableness to the best of their knowledge based on their available data. After the
imputation process is complete, Census creates data files for the current and prior fiscal years.
Census uploads these files to the NCES member site for review. The NCES member site allows
Census to transfer data to NCES in a secure environment.
If the SEA’s have reason to believe the initial imputation is not a reasonable representation of
their data, the state can make changes to the data and Census runs a second round of
imputations. . The certified data from the first round are not re-imputed even if the uncertified
round-one imputations resulted in the updating of some relevant data. Furthermore, in the 2a
version of the file, imputations are only applied to missing data for states that update their data
submission for that fiscal year. The data flag section of the data file identifies data items that
have been imputed.

7

“Contains,” “Combined with,” and “Totals” imputations based on the “Herriot Imputation
Method”
The Herriot Imputation Method (Monaco and Wang 1995) is used to distribute a reported
subtotal across two or more unreported categories using the ratio of each subcategory to the
grand total as the basis of the final distribution. This is used when the ratio of a data item to the
grand total has less variance across states than the ratio of that item to the subtotal. The
computation of this method involves using the average ratio of each item to be imputed to the
grand total across all “fully reporting” states to calculate the unreported subcategories and then
raking the imputed items to the reported subtotal. These imputations do not affect any totals or
subtotals.
Imputations identified in Appendix D as being “Combined with,” “Contains,” or “Supplemented
by” use the Herriot Imputation Method. These are cases where a state is unable to report
explicitly into the NCES CCD category sets but are able to report a subtotal. For example, the
statement “A contains B, C, and D by T” in Appendix D indicates that the reported value of A is
actually the subtotal of A, B, C, and D where T is the grand total. The Herriot Method is then
applied to impute the final values of A, B, C, and D.
“Impute/Import” imputations
The Herriot Method is not necessary when the variance of the item to the subtotal across
reporting states is sufficiently low. In this case the imputation method can be simplified by
comparing the missing components to the subtotal rather than the grand total. If the subtotal is
reported but the distribution of that subtotal across items is unknown then the import/impute
function uses the ratio of one or more elements to the subtotal, averaged across “fully reporting”
states to distribute the reported subtotal into one or more item components. In Appendix D, the
syntax for “Impute/Import” imputations is “A Impute/Import T” where A is a single item or
array of items that are components of the total T.
“Impute based on” imputations
Statements with “impute based on” indicate that the first item was reported as missing and the
missing value was assigned based on information from the variables following “based on.” In
some cases the subtotal may have been incomplete. When a component of the subtotal is not
reported, and it is known that the subtotal does not include the unreported item, the ratio used in
the “impute/import” procedure must be modified. The average subtotal is calculated across
“fully reporting” states and the missing item is compared to that modified subtotal. For example,
“A imputed based on (T-A)” implies that A, in the target state, is not included in T. Therefore the
average ratio of A to the total excluding A across the “fully reporting” states is applied to T in
the target state to estimate A in the target state. Totals must then be recalculated after the
imputation as the imputed value can now be included in the grand total.
“Distribute by” imputations
In some cases the state may have reported a positive value for an item that should actually be
zero. In these cases the value of the misreported item is redistributed into several other reported
items based on the known distribution of the target items. For example, the statement “A
8

distributed by destination/salary B, C, D, E, F” can be interpreted as, the value reported as “A”
has been prorated into B, C, D, E, and F based on the reported distribution of B, C, D, E, and F.
“A” is then set to zero. In these cases, as B, C, D, E, and F were all reported, no data from any
other states are necessary in the calculation.
Data flags
For each variable, there is a companion flag that indicates whether the value was reported by the
state or was placed there by NCES using one of several imputation or edit methodologies. The
flags are as follows:
R – As reported by the state
A – Edited (prior to FY 09, labeled “Adjusted”)
I – Imputed based on a method other than prior year’s data14
T – Total based on sum of internal or external detail
The companion cell in each case is identified by the name of the data cell preceded by an “I.”
Appendix D explains any action taken by NCES with regard to each variable.
C. Variations in the Survey Over Time
The NPEFS underwent a major revision in FY 89, acquiring its present name in that year and
greatly increasing the number of data items collected. Since that year, items have been added to
and deleted from the survey, as follows:


Beginning with the FY 92 survey:
– Food Services expenditures were broken out by object, adding items Food Services –
Salaries (E3A11), Food Services – Employee Benefits (E3A12), Food Services –
Purchased Services (E3A13), Food Services – Supplies (E3A14), and Food Services –
Other (E3A16).
– Enterprise Operations expenditures were broken out by object, adding items Enterprise
– Salaries (E3B11), Enterprise – Employee Benefits (E3B12), Enterprise – Purchased
Services (E3B13), Enterprise – Supplies (E3B14), and Enterprise – Other (E3B16).
– Facilities Acquisition and Construction Services - Nonproperty expenditures were
broken out into Buildings Built and Alterations Performed by LEA’s Own Staff (E611)
and Buildings Built and Alterations Performed by Contractors (E612). In addition,
Facilities Acquisition and Construction Services – Property expenditures were broken
out into Land (E62A) and Buildings (E62B). STE6, the sum of all of the Facilities
Acquisitions and Construction Services items, was added.

14

For some NCES surveys, imputations of missing data items are performed by applying a growth factor to data
reported in a prior year. This type of growth-rate imputation is not performed for the NPEFS. “I” is assigned the
value of “Imputed based on a method other than prior year’s data” to maintain consistency in the meaning of
imputation flags across NCES surveys.

9



Beginning with FY 98 survey:
– The Facilities Acquisition and Construction Services breakouts listed above (items
E611, E612, E62A and E62B) were discontinued.



Beginning with FY 04 survey:
– Teacher Salaries expenditures were broken out by program, adding items Teacher
Salaries – Regular Programs (E11A), Teacher Salaries – Special Education Programs
(E11B), Teacher Salaries – Vocational Education Programs (E11C), and Teacher
Salaries – Other Education Programs (E11D).
– The item for the textbooks expenditures (E2) was added.



Beginning with FY 09 survey:
– Seven items for expenditures from the ARRA funds were added, including Instructional
Expenditures From ARRA Funds (ARRASTE1), Total Current Expenditures From
ARRA Funds (ARRATE5), Community Service Nonproperty and Direct Cost
Programs From ARRA Funds (ARRAE81Z), Property Expenditures From ARRA
Funds (ARRATE10), School Construction Expenditures From ARRA Funds
(ARRASTE6), Expenditures From Title I Received Under ARRA (ARRATLEIZ), and
Direct Program Support Expenditures From ARRA Funds (ARRASTE4).

D. Fiscal Data Plan
In addition to the finance data specified in the NPEFS, NCES also collects information from
each state to help process the data and to gain a better understanding of what programs and/or
policies are connected with the data items and definitions. The FY 10 data plan questionnaire
appears in Appendix E, and the responses (by state or jurisdiction) appear in Appendix F. The
fiscal data plan responses are presented as reported by SEAs with minimal editing by NCES. The
responses to the data plan are not included on the data file.
E. State Notes
The state notes contain information from state data providers regarding any significant changes
in the data they are reporting. These comments are reported in this documentation as stated by
the respondent with minimal editing by NCES. The beginning and end dates of the fiscal year are
also reported for each state.

Appendix B—Glossary

B-1

Appendix B—Glossary
This glossary applies to the National Public Education Financial Survey (NPEFS). For
additional detail, it is suggested that the data user consult the NCES accounting
handbook, Financial Accounting for Local and State School Systems: 2009 Edition
(Allison, Honegger, and Johnson 2009). When applicable, line numbers corresponding to
the handbook are listed in parentheses, and corresponding NPEFS variable names are
listed in brackets.
average daily attendance: Average daily attendance (ADA) is defined by state law or
regulations. In their absence, ADA should be calculated by summing the counts of
resident students attending public school each day of the school year and then dividing by
the total number of days that school is in session during the school year. Students who
reside in one state and attend public school in another state should be counted in the state
where they reside. [ADA, A14A, and A14B.]
CCD: Common Core of Data. A group of public elementary/secondary education surveys
of NCES. CCD data are collected from the administrative records systems of each state’s
department of education.
community services: A functional category of expenditures (3300) for such services as
swimming pools, day care centers, and programs for the elderly. [E81 and E82.]
current expenditures: Funds spent operating local public schools and local education
agencies, including such expenses as salaries for school personnel, student transportation,
school books and materials, and energy costs, but excluding capital outlay, interest on
school debt, payments to private schools, and payments to public charter schools. [TE5 is
the total of STE1, STE2T, and STE3.]
debt services: A subfunction (5100) within the expenditure function “other uses” (5000).
It includes only long-term debt service with obligations exceeding 1 year. [E7A1 and
E7A2.]
direct cost programs: A category of expenditures for programs not part of public
elementary and secondary education. These programs include community colleges, adult
education, and nonpublic school support. [E9A, E9B, E9C, E9D, E91, and subtotal
STE9. NOTE: STE9 does not include E91.]
direct program support: Expenditures made by state education agencies (SEAs) for, or
on behalf of, local education agencies (LEAs). The majority of these expenditures are for
teacher’s retirement funds. The remainders are for textbooks, busing, and special
programs, such as education for disabled students. Although states often report these
expenditures in the appropriate function, they are sometimes lumped together under the
heading “direct program support,” in which case NCES distributes them by function and
object after consultation with state officials. Direct program support for public
elementary and secondary education is reported in the data file as zero. [E4A1, E4A2,
E4B1, E4B2, E4C1, E4C2, E4D, E4E1, E4E2, and subtotal STE4. NOTE: STE4 does
not include E4A2, E4B2, E4C2, E4D, and E4E2.]

employee benefits. [E12, E222, E223, E224, E225, E226, E227, E228, E3A12, and
E3B12. Variables E222, E223, E224, E225, E226, E227, and E228 sum to TE22.]
enterprise operations: A subfunction (3200) of noninstructional services (3000).
Enterprise operations are activities that are financed, at least in part, by user charges,
similar to a private business. These operations are sometimes subsidized by LEAs. Food
services expenditures are reported under food services, even if they are run as an
enterprise. [E3B11, E3B12, E3B13, E3B14, E3B2, E3B16, and subtotal E3B1. NOTE:
E3B1 does not include E3B2.]
equipment: An object subcategory (730) within facilities acquisition and construction
services (4000). It includes the initial purchase of property items such as books for a
newly constructed school or addition. Replacement equipment is labeled property and is
reported by function. [E63]
expenditures: All amounts of money paid out by a school system, net of recoveries and
other correcting transactions, other than for retirement of debt, purchase of securities,
extension of loans, and agency transactions. Expenditures include only external
transactions of a school system and exclude noncash transactions such as the provision of
perquisites or other in-kind payments.
expenditures from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds:
The Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA, PL 111-5) provided states with
additional federal funds to support public education. These funds are allocated through
existing programs such as Title I, Impact Aid, and Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act (IDEA), and also directly through the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund. The following
seven items for expenditures from ARRA funds are collected in NPEFS:
instruction expenditures from ARRA funds: Total current expenditures for
instruction from ARRA funds, including current expenditures for activities
directly associated with the interaction between teachers and students, including
teacher salaries and benefits, supplies (such as textbooks), and purchased

ARRA funds: Include expenditures for instruction, support services, and
noninstruction, functions 1000 through 3200, that are made from ARRA funds.
[ARRATE5]

 Students do not pay fees for transportation.
 The chart of accounts for local education agencies (LEAs) does not include a separate
code for revenue for tuition, fees, and charges paid by students to attend summer
school.
 Instruction, Support Services - Supplies expenditures decreased because of cuts to the
state appropriation for education.
 Other Support Services - Other increased substantially due to a large principal
payment on a short-term loan.
 Average Daily Attendance has decreased because of widespread influenza.
 Title V, Part A funding has ended; all expenditures reported are listed under the
carryover category.
Alaska
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 The addition of ARRA funds increased revenue and expenditure.
 Title V money reported are from three districts utilizing the 15 month extension so
they are expending 09 funds.
Arizona
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Revenue from Intermediate Sources decreased because the county equalization was
suspended.
 Instruction Supplies decreased due to soft capital reduction. Districts expended less
on books and instructional aids.
 Student Transportation Support Services - Property decreased due to funding
reduction from State School Facilities Board.
 Operation and Maintenance Support Services – Other expenditures have decreased
due to a single district overstating its FY09 value for bond expenditures.
 Average Daily Attendance decreased from prior year. Methodology used in FY09
was not consistent with that was used in prior years. FY10 is consistent with those
years.

Arkansas
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Arkansas districts received a substantial amount of ARRA monies (approximately 192
million dollars).
 ARRA funding aided Arkansas in much needed instructional equipment purchases
and property expenditures for various districts.
 One regular district and two charter school districts contracted out for food services.
California
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 California LEAs do not collect tuition from students to attend summer school.
 California LEA’s do not collect revenues from the sale or rental of textbooks.
 California does not report district activities. Revenues for extra-curricular activities
are collected and managed by student organizations, rather than by districts.
 Due to California’s continued fiscal crises and stagnant enrollment, LEAs are not
purchasing land for new school facilities.
 Average Daily Attendance (ADA) decreased for two programs that previously
reported. Regional occupational programs and summer school were included in
“categorical program flexibility” implemented pursuant to California Education Code
Section 42605. Funding for these programs may be used for any educational purpose,
and LEAs are deemed to comply with all previous requirements, including ADA
reporting. Therefore, ADA formerly associated with these programs is no longer
appropriately included in total ADA since serving the ADA is no longer a condition of
receipt of funding.
Colorado
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA education jobs and state stabilization funds were used to offset decreases in
state and local funding of district total program funding.
 ARRA funds were used to purchase software licenses for student intervention
programs.
 Property expenditures decreased across the board due to extreme budget cuts.
 Denver public schools were required to transfer the balance in its Retiree Health
Benefit Trust to Colorado PERA.
 School districts made a large payment to the State of Colorado in accordance with
school Capital Construction Grant Program administered by the State.

Connecticut
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Connecticut does not collect data from local school districts for the District Activities
item.
 Connecticut held back a large portion of Title 1 funds as compared to the previous
year. Those funds were expended in FY2010 as carryover.
Delaware
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA grants increased for FY10.
District of Columbia
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 DC undertook considerable changes to its NPEFS data collection methods, including
more comprehensive training materials and greater diligence in collecting and
analyzing data submitted by the LEAs. Because of this greater diligence, LEAs: (a)
discovered that they had previously submitted data in the wrong data field or missed
data completely or (b) had not previously submitted not understanding the importance
of the survey. Some of the data appear "out of tolerance" due to this year's more
accurate and comprehensive data collection. ADA has likely decreased due to better
understanding of the state formula for this calculation.
 There is no intermediate agency in the District. Previously reported data in this
category was incorrect and has been rectified in this submission.
 NCES requested we not include direct support figures if we could determine as an
SEA, where these support dollars are actually spent. DC honored that request and
redistributed the dollars we would normally categorize as "direct support" into their
appropriate categories in other parts of the survey - mainly student transportation and
"tuition" under instruction expenditures.
Florida
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
 Florida is experiencing a large decline in property values resulting in the decline of
property tax revenues.
 The majority of decrease in state revenues is due to budget reductions.
 Other Direct Program Support – expenditures includes the following programs:
Florida School for the Deaf and Blind, Virtual Schools, McKay Scholarships, and
Florida Tax Credit Scholarships.

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Georgia
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 State funding declined so the state utilized the Federal Stimulus funds.
 Nearly all Federal funding was due to ARRA monies.
 Some increase of Federal revenue was from the Federal Child Program Nutrition
(School Fund) and USDA Commodities.
 Districts lowered their expenditures for purchased and contracted services.
 Districts purchased fewer buses and equipment due to decreased funding from the
State.
 Transportation appropriations fell significantly.
 The Georgia General Assembly no longer funds liability Insurance for Teachers
maintained by the Georgia Department of Education.
 Georgia collected less Revenue for FY10 and, as a result, expended less on Education.
Districts as a whole were unwilling to dip into reserves with State Revenues not
increasing and ARRA Funds stopping in FY12.
Hawaii
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA grants increased substantially for FY10.
 Purchased services for students and institutions increased substantially due to a
contract to upgrade the Electronic Comprehensive Student Support System and oneyear support funding for the Hawaii State Alternate Assessment Examination.
 Hawaii’s Department of Education began taking furlough days due to budget
restrictions and reductions (18-20 days over the course of the year).
 Certain positions in human resources were transferred from Other Support Services
(2500) to Support Services, Students (2100). The purpose was to move these
employees from the state offices to the district offices to allow them to be more
accessible to the schools. The salaries transferred amounted to over $8 million.
 With budget restrictions from the Governor, efforts were made to reduce spending on
outside vendors.
 The Hawaii Department of Transportation does not own any buses (contracts or leases
operate and maintain the buses).
Idaho
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA grants increased substantially for FY10.
 The state of Idaho provides the majority of public school funding via the public school
appropriation. This appropriation decreased substantially. Local, state, and federal
revenues and expenditures have decreased for FY10.
 Average daily attendance increased in FY10 even though revenue and expenditures
have decreased.

Illinois
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Significant bond sales occurred in FY10.
 Community services increased substantially in FY10.
 Other Direct Program Support expenditures include amounts for Economic Education,
Illinois Governor Internship, and the Department of Juvenile Justice Program. Each of
these programs had decreases.
Indiana
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 School corporations receive summer school reimbursement from the State.
 Indiana shifted funding from property tax to state support during the FY09 data
collection. The decrease in property tax revenue also caused a decrease in other taxes
(Excise Taxes, Local Option Income Tax and Federal Income Tax), which was fully
realized in FY10.
 Indianapolis Public Schools and the Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation
received millions of dollars into the construction fund for bond principal.
 Summer school is a state, not a local, source.
 Indiana changed the guidelines on what may be classified as textbooks and as a result,
many school corporations began charging computers and laptops as textbook
expenses.
 Purchased Services decreased slightly from FY09 to FY10 while Total Food Services
expenditures increased slightly (increase in supplies and property), causing the ratio to
decrease slightly.
Iowa
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Increased Federal revenues through the State are due to the ARRA funding. ARRA
State Fiscal Stabilization dollars were used for state aid and instructional support that
previously would have been state revenues.
 State revenues were impacted as well due to a 10% across the board cut in FY10.
 Iowa has a statewide sales tax that allows capital expenditures such as equipment and
vehicles to be taxed. The function category for which districts will purchase
equipment will vary from year to year. In addition, ARRA funds provided additional
funding for equipment purchases.

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Kansas
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Less bond issues in FY10
 Employee Benefits for Public School Employees: Kansas captures expenditures on the
budget by function. These expenses are reported in the appropriate NPEFS section by
function.
Kentucky
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received for FY10 (State Fiscal Stabilization Fund,
Education State Grants, Recovery Act and various other ARRA funding).
 New chart-of-accounts contributed to realignment of detail into functions and objects.
 New vehicles, computers and instruction equipment purchased with the ARRA
assistance.
Louisiana
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Districts received substantial monies from ARRA, FEMA and TANF (Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families) funding.
 The decrease in Instruction - Property is due to a decrease in expenditures by several
large districts that made large purchases in FY09.
 The increase in Operation of Non-Instructional Services Expenditures Subtotal for
Enterprise Operations is due to one-time purchases of supplies by a couple of
districts.
Maine
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 School district consolidation took effect in FY10 joining many school districts into
one. This brought about a shift in taxes raised by a district and was offset with a
decline in taxes raised by a municipal school unit.
 State revenues declined and were offset by ARRA State Stabilization funding.
 Due to budget cuts at the state and local level because of the economic climate, more
schools are utilizing “Pay to Play” programs as a way to generate revenue needed to
preserve sports programs.
 School district consolidation has changed the way many units provide food service to
students. Consolidated units have been able to utilize efficiencies in this function.
 Maine has a declining student population. The decline in Average Daily Attendance
is consistent with the decline in resident enrollment and attending enrollment.

Maryland
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Maryland received substantial ARRA monies for FY10.
 Other expenditures in Instruction Support Services and General Administration
Support Services – Purchased Services increased. This is due to two school districts
expending ARRA funds.
 Total Other Expenditures in Operation and Maintenance Services increased
significantly. Montgomery County Public Schools increased spending in this area by
$29 million ($27 million of that being from ARRA funds).
 Maryland financial reporting policies do not distinguish grant Title I expenditures in
terms of obligated funds in current year versus funds obligated in the prior fiscal years
that were available and used with the current year. Funds are available for a 27-month
period. Maryland is unable to report carryover funds.
Massachusetts
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Boston folded its own separate teachers pension system into the Commonwealth’s as
of FY10. It used to receive state aid to cover much of its own pension cost whereas
now they no longer receive direct assistance.
 Summer school revenues are better classified in FY10.
 Municipal short-term interest Bond Anticipation Notes fell drastically in FY10.
 In FY09, we changed the cell where adult education expenditures should be reported.
Districts are getting better at following that particular instruction.
Michigan
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Michigan has encouraged districts to engage in shared service/contracted services for
all educational support services. Districts did in fact take the challenge seriously.
 Michigan continues to experience declining enrollment in FY10.

 
 

H-8

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Minnesota
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies were received for FY10 whereas no ARRA monies were
requested for FY09. The ARRA funding increased expenditures.
 Employee benefits were substantially decreased in FY10 due to a special one-time
bond purchase (OPEB – Other Post Employment Bonds) to fund actuarial liabilities to
pay post-employment benefits for the FY09 collection year.
 Minnesota cooperative took control of an insurance pool and recorded expenditures of
$88 million as miscellaneous costs in the general fund rather than the internal service
fund. Corrected coding will be applicable in subsequent years.
 ARRA funds were used for to purchase technology equipment such as computers,
peripheral equipment, and telecommunication transmission equipment.
 State Per-Pupil Expenditures: Over the past three years, the 'per-pupil' expenditures
were as follows: FY08= 10,084, FY09= 11,028, and FY10= 10,728. In FY09, the
increase was largely attributed to OPEB bond sales that were reported in current
expenditures. As a result, the 'per-pupil' expenditures in FY09 were significantly
higher than FY08. If the FY08 and FY10 'per-pupil' expenditures are compared, the
two-year percent change is 6.4% for an average of 3.2% per year.
Mississippi
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Mississippi does not collect textbook revenues.
 ARRA funds increased the Grants-in-Aid from the Fed Government through the State.
Local funds may have increased because of the decrease in State Sources.
 Districts reported less expenditure in the property category. This is possibly due to
funding issues.
Missouri
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 The receipt of ARRA funds in FY10 is causing the Federal and State revenues to be
out of tolerance with the prior year ratio.
Montana
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received for FY10.
 Montana has a continued decline in enrollment, leading to a decrease in ADA.
 Local revenue declines are situations where tax levies did not materialize as expected.

 
 

H-9

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Nebraska
Fiscal Year: September 1 – August 31
Nevada
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 The timing in receipt of ARRA monies was such that ARRA was all spent in FY09.
Very little ARRA money was received and expended in FY10.
 Student Activities was incorrectly reported as District Activities prior to FY10.
 Nevada acquired a sufficient amount of new school buses in FY10.
 Newly implemented chart-of-accounts has caused some reclassification between
functions.
 Average daily attendance swings upward and downward greatly depending on the
economy and due to Nevada’s transient population.
New Hampshire
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 State source revenues include the State of New Hampshire’s contribution to the
retirement system on behalf of teachers.
 New Hampshire elected to expend all ARRA monies in FY09 including their
allocation for FY10.
 Enrollment has steadily been declining for a number of years resulting in lower
Average Daily Attendance numbers.
New Jersey
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA monies for State Fiscal Stabilization Funds replaced state aid in FY10.
 Contracted pre-k programs were incorrectly reported by school districts in prior years.
For FY10 school districts, corrections were made.
New Mexico
Fiscal Year: July 1—June 30
Notes:
 LEAs reported a new item in lieu of taxes for Other Local Government Units – NonProperty Tax for FY10.
 Substantial ARRA funding received for FY10.
 Additional Special Education students were identified through individual education
plans – each year it fluctuates and needs for supply requirements change.
 Federal stimulus monies helped to meet current and past supply needs for social and
emotional health, violence prevention, special education materials, etc.
 Food Services - Property is much higher because some of the State of New Mexico’s
LEA’s purchased/installed badly needed Food Service equipment for existing/new
schools throughout the State.
 
 

H-10

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
New York
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 School districts have no transportation fees from individuals.
 The sharp increase in Other Direct Program Support for Public School Students is
due to school district payments to charter schools.
North Carolina
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Tuition from Individuals was estimated for FY10 based on a 5-year average and local
source of revenue subtotal.
 The minor decrease in Average Daily Attendance was likely due to a change in NC
legislation that modified the definition of those entitled to attend school.
North Dakota
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 A new program provided state grants to school districts in exchange for reducing
property taxes.
 Substantial ARRA monies received for FY10.
 Millions of dollars were issued in bond sales for 10 North Dakota schools.
 Adult education expenditures spiked in 2008-2009 and returned to previous levels in
2009-2010.
 ARRA education stabilization funding was distributed through the state aid formula.
This freed up funding for state grants that were appropriated for improvement,
renovation and repair of school buildings. This included equipment upgrades.
Ohio
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.
 Ohio made modification to the state revenue calculation to avoid double counting
revenue passed through to charter schools.
 Ohio enrollment has been trending downwards since FY05. FY10 continues this
trend.
Oklahoma
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.

H-11

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Oregon
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.
 Other Sources of Revenue decline is due to a large decline in bond sales.
 Oregon has a heavy reliance on income tax revenue, which had a big drop due to the
recession.
 There was a misclassification of trust and agency funds in FY09 that are now
appropriately reported as special revenue funds bringing in an increase in the extra
curricular activities category.
 Purchase service cutbacks were widespread due to revenue declines.
 New food service contracts only reflect the contract cost and do not show the actual
food costs. They are charged a rate per meal, which is not necessarily the cost of food
per meal.
 State Per Pupil Expenditure declined because the reduction of 5.6 percent in state
revenue required districts to cut spending.
Pennsylvania
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Decrease in Adult Education equipment primarily due to decrease in the Vocational
Technical Schools.
 There was a change in accounting method for one school district. In prior years, they
accounted for student fees as contra expenditure. For FY10 student fees were
reported as revenue.
Rhode Island
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 FY10 data is the result of Rhode Island’s first year under its new statewide Uniform
Accounts, which is used on a daily transactional basis. Prior to FY10, districts
maintained their own independent charts and “mapped” their district data into a state
reporting module at year-end. Greater accountability can be seen in this new data as
we have also standardized accounting practices statewide.
South Carolina
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 One of South Carolina’s school districts has a new one-cent sales tax for their
Education Capital Improvement Fund. This was the first full year of the tax
collection.
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.

South Dakota
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Increase in Title I Expenditures due to ARRA.
Tennessee
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Increase in Revenue from Federal Sources is due to an energy grant.
 Instruction - Property increase is due to purchase of new items such as computers,
desk, chairs, machinery and replacements.
 Increase in Support Services Instruction - Purchased Services is due to an increase in
contracts for substitute teachers.
 Support Services Instruction - Property increase is due to repair and replacement of
equipment.
 Food Services Operations - Property increase is due to purchase of equipment.
Texas
Fiscal Year: September 1 – August 31
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.
 Increased ARRA funding used to purchase one-time cost instructional items such as
computers, software and school buses.
 Hurricane Ike caused greater expenditures in FY09.
Utah
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 ARRA and other Federal programs have significantly increased indirect cost.
 Several large construction projects were completed last year. With the current
economic conditions new bond elections are being delayed until better circumstances
will allow for taxpayer approvals.
 Several LEAs used ARRA funds to purchase equipment particularly in the Special
Education area rather than increasing salaries to have them not continue after the
ARRA funds have been spent.
 Utah provided less funding to LEAs and ARRA was used to make up for part of the
decrease in state funding.

 
 

H-13

Appendix H—State Notes
 
 
Vermont
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Vermont does not collect textbook revenues. Occasionally a Vermont district will
earn a small amount of revenue by selling used books.
 By statue, Vermont municipalities collect property tax as agents of the State. The
money goes through a state equalization formula and is distributed as state revenue.
 Increases in Student Transportation - Property is due to replacement of old buses.
 Vermont’s Average Daily Attendance continues to drop; decline has been going on
for over a decade.
Virginia
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Virginia does not have District Activities.
Washington
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 With budget cuts, Washington districts are spending less for Support Services.
West Virginia
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.
 Although Average Daily Attendance decreased slightly, District Activity revenue for the
student body decreased approximately 6.6% because of fewer field trips and other
activities due to the struggling economy.
 Employee Benefits increased for various functions because of the state allocating their
Post Employment Bonds (OPEB) for/on behalf of retirement payments directly to the
various functions instead of including them as Direct Program Support as in prior years.
 OPEB expenses increased substantially as compared to the prior year via the
contractually required contribution that must be recognized under GASB 45.
 Student Support Services - Purchased Services increased approximately $4.5 million due
to an increase in Professional Educator Services ($1.24 million) and Other Professional
Services ($3.27). Approximately $2.9 million of this increase was paid for with ARRA
funding.
 Direct Support - Employee Benefits in the PY included for/on behalf retirement
contributions remitted to the pension plans directly by the State. For the CY, the for/on
behalf retirement contributions were allocated to various functions based on the
proportion of retirement expenses recorded by the LEAs.
 Direct Support-Other Property included for/on behalf equipment purchases under the
Tools for Schools program in the PY. For the CY, the LEAs recorded this revenue and
corresponding expense in their accounting records so the equipment expenses were
allocated to the various function codes.

Wisconsin
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Wisconsin used the bulk of their ARRA funding in FY09.
 Less interest is being paid on short-term debt.
 Some districts are on a pay-as-you-go basis for OPEB for retirees and are required to
code the expenditures in this account. As this expenditure benefits only there, is no
salary to offset the benefit expenditure.
 Wisconsin Center for the Blind & Visually Impaired had an increase in the demand
for Braille books.
Wyoming
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Increase in Local Options Tax resulted in higher assessed valuations.
 Increased enrollment for distance education programs administered by other
Wyoming districts reflects increased tuition payments to other LEAs.
 A bond was refunded in FY09 leading to an increase in expenses. There was no bond
refunding for FY10.
 2009-10 was the first year that ARRA funds were drawn down by Wyoming school
districts.
American Samoa
Fiscal Year: October 1 – September 30
Notes:
 Tuition and other revenues were coded incorrectly for FY09. These codes were
reported correctly n FY10.
 Support services - Instruction increased because the Educational Jobs Fund was used
to pay for teachers while the consolidated grants were being approved.
Guam
Fiscal Year: October 1 – September 30
Notes:
 Local sources of revenue were reduced due to management reclassification of
contributions and other receipts.
 Food Services Operations – Purchased Services increased due to an increase in food
costs.
 Guam had a reduction of appropriations for textbooks.
 Transportation information was not readily available in prior years. Agencies were
able to provide expenditures related to public school transportation for FY10

Fiscal Year: October 1 – September 30
Notes:
 FEMA monies were received in FY09; no FEMA grants received in FY10.
 Reduction in textbook costs compared to prior year.

Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30
Notes:
 Substantial ARRA monies received in FY10.
 FY10 includes a Health Nutrition contract to promote better nutrition in school
lunches.
 Decreases in salaries and benefit expenses were for the economic incentive program
for teachers and employees associated with Law No. 7 (which enables thousands of
layoffs in the public workforce).
Virgin Islands
Fiscal Year: October 1 – September 30
Notes:
 Health insurance rates increased.
 Adult Education increased personnel.
 Enrollment declines, yet the level of available funds increased.
 Title V, Part A program has ended resulting in a huge impact for net current
expenditures; hence a large increase in State Per Pupil Expenditures
