In order to assure that survey documentation enables the reader—even the nonstatistical user—to understand its
contents and the use and limitations of data readily and clearly, NCES provides data file documentation for all
released data files. This includes an abstract or summary that cites the methodology report and/or technical
notes associated with the survey and a description of survey methodology that is consistent with the NCES
standard for survey system documentation (see NCES Statistical Standards,
https://nces.ed.gov/statprog/standards.asp, Standard 3-4).1
NCES releases documentation for NPEFS concurrently with public use data files. The survey documentation is
drafted contemporaneously with NPEFS data collection, editing, and analysis. As of the date of this submission,
April 2019, the most recent documentation for NPEFS is for the FY 2016 data files. Given this, the
Documentation for the NCES Common Core of Data National Public Education Financial Survey (NPEFS),
School Year 2015–16 (Fiscal Year 2016), NCES 2019-302 is provided in this appendix as an example of the
type of documentation that will be created for the 2019 through 2021 NPEFS data collections.

Acknowledgments
The operations and product development for the National Public Education Finance Survey
(NPEFS) are supported through an interagency agreement with the U.S. Census Bureau.
Specifically, a team of skilled analysts, statisticians, and information technology specialists
from the Economic Reimbursable Surveys Division (ERD) of the Census Bureau work closely
with the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to conduct the NPEFS. Additionally,
a network of state education agency fiscal coordinators take responsibility for compiling and
reporting finance data for public education activities within their respective states. While the
professionals who supported this work are too numerous to list here, their time, effort, and
commitment toward providing accurate school finance data are gratefully appreciated.
Particular thanks are owed to the state fiscal coordinators, whose efforts make the Common
Core of Data program possible.

I. Introduction to the NCES Common Core of Data National Public Education Financial
Survey (NPEFS), School Year 2015–16 (Fiscal Year 2016), Provisional File Version 1a
This documentation is for the provisional version 1a file of the National Public Education
Financial Survey (NPEFS) for school year (SY) 2015–16, fiscal year 2016 (FY 16) conducted by
the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). It contains a brief description of the data
collection, along with information required to understand and access the data file.
The Common Core of Data (CCD) is a national statistical program that collects and compiles
administrative data from state education agencies (SEAs) covering the universe of all public
elementary and secondary schools and school districts in the United States. NPEFS
is one component of the CCD. The other components include nonfiscal, universe data
(enrollment and staff data at the state, LEA and school levels), the School District Finance
Survey (F-33), and the School-Level Finance Survey (SLFS). The principal users of CCD data
are the federal government, the education research community, state and local government
officials (including school boards and LEA administrators), and the general public.
Congress authorizes NCES to collect these data through the Education Sciences Reform Act of
2002 (20 U.S.C. § 9543). NCES and the Economic Reimbursable Surveys Division (ERD) of the
U.S. Census Bureau collaborate to collect public education finance data, with the Census Bureau
acting as the primary collection agent for NPEFS.
NPEFS provides state-level aggregate finance data for revenues and expenditures for public
elementary and secondary education.
The NPEFS data are useful to (1) chief officers of state education agencies (SEAs), (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.
SEAs in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five U.S. Island Areas (American Samoa,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands) report aggregated state-level finance data to NPEFS. 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 NPEFS file also includes total student
membership data collected by the State Nonfiscal Public Elementary/Secondary Education
Survey. 2

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 versions are 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 2015–16 (FY 16), 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 a minimum of one round of
data review and editing. NCES may update the file if SEAs report revised data to address errors
in a provisional data file.
The data source for the First Look report entitled Revenues and Expenditures for Public
Elementary and Secondary Education: School Year 2015–16 (Fiscal Year 2016) is the FY 16
NPEFS provisional data file. This report provides users with an opportunity to access provisional
NPEFS data that have been reviewed, edited, and imputed.
The provisional data are subject to an 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 provisional data for the
following year.

ANSI state codes replace the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) state codes previously issued by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S.
Island Areas. ANSI state code values map directly to the retired FIPS state code values.
4
Letters “b” through “z” are used for internal version control.

File names
The names of the FY 16 releases are as follows:
• Stfis16_1a.txt (tab-delimited text file)
• Stfis16_1a.xls (Microsoft Excel file)
The first seven characters indicate the file contents and year, and the last two characters indicate
the file version. “Stfis” stands for state fiscal, “16” stands for FY 16, and “1” indicates that the
file is ready for initial release by NCES.
A. Survey Methodology
SEAs in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five U.S. Island Areas (American Samoa,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands) participate in the NPEFS collection.
SEAs appoint state fiscal coordinators to work with NCES and the Census Bureau to provide
accurate and comparable data across states and jurisdictions. NCES and the Census Bureau
provide annual training workshops for state fiscal coordinators that are designed to improve the
efficiency and efficacy of reporting the NPEFS data. The annual training workshops cover the
comprehensive review of data items; online training on data submission; discussion of reporting
and editing processes; and interchange on coordinating submission of fiscal data with the state's
data systems; which are all designed to improve data quality. During these training workshops,
often times the state fiscal coordinators learn more from exchanging ideas among each other than
from any other source. State fiscal coordinators also provide valuable feedback in these
workshops that allows NCES to identify and address current issues related to school finance
reporting so that the data continue to be relevant and timely.
Prior to reporting the NPEFS data, SEAs must compile fiscal data from the local education
agencies (LEAs) that operate or support public elementary and secondary schools. SEAs may
review and edit data from their LEAs to enhance data quality. SEAs also include revenues and
expenditures for any state-run schools, such as schools with special education programs or
juvenile justice facilities that provide education services. 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 official 5 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 16 NPEFS data collection opened on February 9, 2017 and closed on August 15, 2017.
Upon receipt of a state’s submission, Census Bureau and NCES analysts review the data for
possible errors or anomalies. Between August 16, 2017 and August 15, 2018, some SEAs
reported revisions to correct or resolve errors in their original submission.
5

NCES requires that each Chief State School Officer designate in writing a certifying official to be responsible for
authenticating the submission for their state. The certifying official must be a fiscal official at the highest level in
the SEA (U.S. Department of Education 2017).

Missing, nonapplicable, and suppressed data
Missing data are reported as “-1” in the data file, nonapplicable data are reported as “-2,” 6 and
true zero data remain as “0.” The FY 15 NPEFS Reporting Instructions (NCES 2017) request
that states report “0” using the Z flag for data items for which no activity has occurred and “-1”
using the M flag for items for which activity has occurred, but for which data are missing. Zeros
reported as not applicable are designated as -2 using the N flag. In some instances, a “-1” or “2” 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”, “-2,” and “0” responses (e.g., textbook expenditures reported as “0” might be edited to “1.”). Beginning with FY 10, CCD identifies submitted NPEFS data that do not meet NCES data
quality standards by reporting the data item as “-9” and the corresponding data item flag as “A.”
This suppression would only occur with numeric data items.
Average daily attendance data and student membership counts
The report from SEAs includes average daily 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 SPPE 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. Other
programs, such as the Education for Homeless Children and Youth program under Title VII of
the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and the Teacher Quality State Grants program
(Title II, Part A of the ESEA), make use of SPPE data indirectly because their formulas are
based, in whole or in part, on State Title I, Part A allocations. 7 SPPE is calculated by dividing net
current expenditures by average daily attendance (ADA).
NPEFS has two different types of pupil or student count 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 is defined by state law
or regulations.
In the absence of state law or regulations, states may report ADA per the federal statutory
definition used by NCES. The federal definition of ADA is as follows:
(i) the aggregate number of days of attendance of all students during a school year;
divided by
(ii) the number of days school is in session during that year. 20 U.S.C §7801 (1)
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.”
7
Department of Education, Notice of Submission of Data by State Education Agencies: Submission Dates for State
Revenue and Expenditure Reports for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, Revisions to Those Reports, and Revisions to Prior
Fiscal Year Reports” 82 Federal Register 9,731 (February 8, 2017).

Thus, 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. ADA data in the NPEFS data file are not necessarily comparable across states because
some states use their own state definitions while other states use the NCES definition.
The NPEFS file also includes membership data (MEMBR15) from the State Nonfiscal Public
Elementary/Secondary Education Survey collection for school year 2015-16. Membership is
defined as the official, unduplicated student enrollment, including students both present and
absent, excluding duplicate counts of students within a specific school or local education agency
or students whose membership is reported by another school or LEA, on the school day closest
to October 1. Because CCD membership is collected using a consistent definition for every
state, NCES uses it, rather than average daily attendance, in the calculation of expenditures per
pupil in the NPEFS reports.
Employee Benefits Data
NPEFS collects employee benefits for the functions of instruction, support services, and
operation of noninstructional services. NPEFS respondents are currently reporting employee
benefits, which are defined as the “Amounts paid by the school district on behalf of employees
(amounts not included in gross salary but in addition to that amount). Such payments are fringe
benefits payments and although not directly paid to employees, nevertheless are part of the cost
of personal services.” 8 The definition of employee benefits is derived from the NCES school
finance accounting handbook, Financial Accounting for Local and State School Systems: 2014
Edition (Allison 2015). NPEFS does not collect actuarially determined annual required
contributions; 9 accrued annual requirement contribution liability; 10 or the actuarial value of
pension plan assets. 11
Use of Crosswalk Software
Since the FY 89 data collection, the 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:
2014 Edition (Allison 2015). The following states used crosswalk software provided by NCES
in the FY 16 collection: Alabama, California, Illinois, Mississippi, Montana, New Jersey, New
Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.

Appendix B specifies that employee benefits include “amounts paid by, or on behalf of, an LEA for retirement
contributions, health insurance, social security contributions, unemployment compensation, worker’s compensation,
tuition reimbursements, and other employee benefits.”
9
Actuarially determined annual required contributions are the annual required contribution (ARC) that incorporates
both the cost of benefits in the current year and the amortization of the plan’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability.
10
The accrued annual requirement contribution liability is the difference between actuarially determined
contributions and actual payments made to the pension fund.
11
Actuarial value of pension plan assets is the value of cash, investments, and other property belonging to a pension
plan as used by an actuary for the purpose of an actuarial valuation.

NCES edit checks
Pursuant to NCES statistical standards, NPEFS staff engages in data editing, which is an iterative
and interactive process that includes procedures for detecting and correcting errors in the data.
After an SEA submits NPEFS data, NPEFS 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 to record layouts the SEA submitted in the previous fiscal
year;
comparisons of membership between the state nonfiscal 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 any data anomalies.

Pursuant to NCES 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 NPEFS staff prepares an edit report that includes the results from the aforementioned tests.
Notification of any arithmetic errors and comments containing NCES’ understanding of specific
missing data items are also included in the edit report.
States are asked to correct arithmetic errors, verify or correct data that fail edit checks, complete
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 resubmit data to resolve data issues on their own initiative. 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.
Student membership edits
Every 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
12

Notice of Submission of Data by State Education Agencies: Submission Dates for State Revenue and Expenditure
Reports for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, Revisions to Those Reports, and Revisions to Prior Fiscal Year Reports,

13
Fully reporting states must have positive values for all fields.

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 Public
Elementary/Secondary Education Survey and verify that the membership data are consistent with
the programs covered in the revenues and expenditures data reported in NPEFS.
As part of the FY 16 NPEFS collection process, NCES asked 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 expenditures data reported in NPEFS.
Arizona, New York, and Oregon indicated that the state fiscal data reported in NPEFS excluded
prekindergarten programs. In these states, the NPEFS total student membership variable
excludes prekindergarten membership. California did not report prekindergarten membership in
the State Nonfiscal Survey of Public Elementary/Secondary Education, but the state fiscal data
reported in FY 16 NPEFS included prekindergarten programs for students with learning
disabilities. California reported directly to NCES that there were 78,004 pre-K students with
disabilities in FY 16.
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 2014). Currently, the Herriot
imputation methodology (Monaco and Wang 1995) is used to impute for missing items in the
NPEFS data file. 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 one by dividing by the sum of the
detail averages. The purpose of imputations is to provide a complete data file that allows 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. If these data elements are imputed, the appropriate totals and subtotals are either
increased or decreased to include the imputed data elements. In other cases, states are able to
provide a subtotal but are unable to provide details that are more specific. The imputed allocation
of these subtotals does not affect the totals or subtotals.
SEAs inform the Census Bureau 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, the Census Bureau creates data files for the current and
prior fiscal years. The Census Bureau uploads these files to the NCES secure data transfer site
for review. The IES File Transfer System allows the Census Bureau to transfer data to NCES in a
secure environment.
If SEAs have reason to believe that the initial imputation is not a reasonable representation of
their data, the state may choose to make changes to the data. If states make changes to data or
fill in missing items that were previously imputed, the Census Bureau will run a second round of
imputations. The certified data from the first round are not re-imputed even if the uncertified

first-round imputations resulted in the updating of some relevant data. In the second round
version of the file, imputations are only applied to missing data for states that update their data
submission for that fiscal year. Empirical testing has shown that a re-imputation of the entire file
did not substantially change the imputed data enough to justify the additional burden of asking
states to recertify the revised imputation. The data flags in the NPEFS data file identify data
items that were imputed.
“Contains,” “Combined with,” and “Totals” imputations based on the “Herriot Imputation
Method”
The Herriot Imputation Method 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 Imputation
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 “Impute/Import”
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
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, since B, C, D, E, and F were all reported, data from any
other states are not necessary to perform the calculation.
Data flags
For each variable, a companion flag 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 by the analyst (formerly labeled “Adjusted”)
I – Imputed based on a method other than prior year’s data 14
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
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 the data 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 the data items
Enterprise – Salaries (E3B11), Enterprise – Employee Benefits (E3B12), Enterprise –

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 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.

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.


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 the data 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).
–A data item for textbooks expenditures (E2) was added.



Beginning with FY 09 survey:
– Seven items for expenditures from the ARRA funds were added:
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).



Beginning with FY 15 survey:
– Seven items for expenditures from the ARRA funds were removed:
ARRASTE1, ARRATE5, ARRAE81Z, ARRATE10, ARRASTE6, ARRATLEIZ, and
ARRASTE4.



Beginning with FY 16 survey:
– Two items for current expenditures by fund type were added:
Current Expenditures Paid from State and Local Funds (CE1) and Current Expenditures
Paid from Federal Funds (CE2).

D. Fiscal Data Plan
NCES 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 16 fiscal data plan questionnaire appears in appendix E, and the responses
for each 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 fiscal 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. See Appendix H. These comments are reported in this
documentation as stated by the respondents 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 Common Core of Data 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: 2014 Edition (Allison
2015). 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.]
current expenditures per pupil: Current expenditures per pupil are calculated by dividing
current expenditures by membership. [TE5, MEMBR15.]
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 remainder 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.]

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,

Georgia has some local charter schools within
the school districts that do not report the
expenditure by object level such as salaries,
etc. The payment made by the school district
to the local charter school for that activity is
reported in purchased services. Beginning in
FY 2017, the school districts are required to
disaggregate the expenditure data as
expended by the local charter school. The
majority of local charter schools did not report
the data correctly at the object code level for
FY 2016, but the functional categories are
materially correct for the local charter school
activity.

Yes, on a program by program basis, count the number of PK12 pupils in the program, and multiple that by the number of
days provided during the summer and then multiply that by
the number of instructional minutes per day and then divided
that by the number 180 and then divided that by the number
300 to come up with a full-time-equivalent (FTE) Summer
School value. School districts may have multiple programs
No
offered during the summer. If a particular program provides
instructional minutes during the day above 300 minutes, the

Appendix H - State Notes
The following notes describe known anomalies in state data reported to the collection agent.
Unless otherwise noted, each anomaly recorded here applies to fiscal year 2016 (FY16). The
absence of “Notes” for a state indicates that the state’s data did not contain any known
anomalies. States are in order by their American National Standards Institute (ANSI) code.
Alabama
Fiscal Year: October 1–September 30
Notes:
• Student Transportation Support Services, Property (E257) increased more than 25%
from the prior year. The largest part of the increase ($12.4 million) was from the
purchase of buses by Tuscaloosa City Schools ($5.1 million) and Mobile County
Schools ($7.9 million).
• Many school districts had significant variances, both increases and decreases, from
proceeds from bonds, which caused an increase in Other Sources of Revenue (R5).
The most significant increase was for $162 million for Mobile County Schools.
Alaska
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• An increase in Other Revenue From Local Sources (R1L) occurred in 54% of school
districts. Lower Kuskokwim School District had the largest increase, which was an
increase of $17.8M in Gains or Losses on the Sale of Capital Assets within capital
projects fund.
• The State of Alaska's statutory on-behalf contribution decreased from 58.19% to
16.71% for the Teacher Retirement System (TRS) and from 22.03% to 5.19% for the
Public Employee Retirement System (PERS). This resulted in a significant reduction
in the percentage of Total Revenue (TR) coming from State Revenue (R3), and
decreases in Instruction, Employee Benefits (E12) (-38%), Student Support Services
(E222) (-38.9%), Instruction Support Services (E223) (-37.8%), General
Administration (E224) (-32%), School Administration (E225) (-34%), Operations and
Maintenance (E226) (-21%), and Other Support Services (E228) (-15%).
• Instruction, Tuition Payments Outside the State (E14) increased in 55% of reporting
districts in FY2016. Tuition and Voucher Payments to Other LEAs and Charter
Schools within the State (E15) decreased in 67% of reporting districts in FY2016.
• Support Services, Student Transportation, Property (E257) increased by 1600%. The
largest increase came from the Anchorage School District, which purchased school
buses.
• Purchases of Food Services, Supplies (E3A14) decreased in 66% of reporting districts
in FY2016, while salaries and other expenditures remained relatively stable.
• Facilities Acquisition & Construction Services, Non-Property Expenditures
(Construction) (E61) decreased by 17%. Lake & Peninsula and Mat-Su Borough
School Districts, which decreased by $14.3M and $7.3M, respectively, returned to
normal expenditure levels in FY2016.

H-2

Appendix H - State Notes
•

State Per Pupil Expenditure (PPE15) decreased by 13.4% from the prior year. While
Alaska’s ADA increased slightly over the prior year, the Net Current Expenditures
for Education (NCE13) decreased by $326.5 million from the prior year largely due
to a decrease in Alaska’s statutory on-behalf rate to the TRS and PERS.

Arizona
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• General Administration Support Services, Employee Benefits (E224) increased more
than 25% from the prior year due to a FY16 chart of accounts update in which
Retirees Benefits was moved from function 1000 to 2350. The largest impacts were in
three districts accounting for approximately $9.6 million of the increase.
• Student Transportation Support Services, Property (E257) increased more than 25%
from the prior year. Kyrene School District accounts for approximately 50% of the
$16 million increase. They converted school buses to diesel fuel, added cameras to
the buses, and added additional air conditioning to some buses.
Arkansas
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• Many school districts in Arkansas are beginning to contract out services for Food
Service Management. They have stated that the Affordable Care Act and insurance
benefits are leading factors toward this change. Districts are finding a big cost savings
by eliminating employees for the food service management. Some districts are
beginning to contract out transportation and maintenance and operation services as
well. We may see this same trend in those areas in FY17 reporting. This is so wide
spread that it is negatively affecting the Arkansas Teacher Retirement System. There
is a bill before the legislative session to charge districts a surcharge who are going in
this direction.
California
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• In California, revenues for District Activities (R1K) are typically collected and
managed by student organizations rather than by school districts. Incidental revenues
that school districts collect for District Activities are reported as Other Revenue from
Local Sources (R1L).
• The percent of Federal Revenue (STR4) over Total Revenue (TR) decreased
approximately 11.81%, or decreased from 9.61% to 8.47%, from the prior year. This
was due to greater increases in state, local, and other revenue causing the proportion
of federal revenue to total revenue to decrease.
• The increased salaries paid to vocational education teachers were mainly due to new
career technical education funding. Beginning 2015–16, this one-time funding for a
three-year competitive grant program was to promote high-quality career technical
education. $400 million was provided in 2015–16, and it required the local
educational agencies to provide a dollar-to-dollar funding match.

H-3

Appendix H - State Notes
•

•
•

The increase in General Administration Support Services, Supplies (E244) was due to
one county office of education incurring approximately $843,000 to replace all
classroom furniture throughout all school districts within the county. On the other
hand, another school district incurred additional expenditures (approximately $1.3
million) for the one-time purchase of iPads for students.
The increase in Instruction, Other (E18) and Student Transportation Support Services,
Property (E257) expenditures were mainly due to use of the increased state K-12
education funding, and about half was reported by California’s largest school district.
State Per Pupil Expenditures (PPE15) increased $1,012 (9.58%) from the prior year.
The increased spending on K–12 education was reasonable due to the increase in total
revenue from all sources. The total revenue from all sources (TR) increased $11.4
billion (15.30%) from the prior year, resulting in an increase in net current
expenditures for education (NCE13) of $6 billion (9.48%) from the prior year. At the
same time, average daily attendance decreased slightly, by 5,855 (0.10%), from the
prior year.

Colorado
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• The increase in Revenue from Intermediate Sources (R2) was due to an influx of cashin-lieu of land, which can vary significantly from year to year.
• The increases in Student Transportation Support Services, Purchased Services (E237)
and Student Transportation Support Services, Property was due to: external
transportation costs and purchase of 12 new buses by two districts; special ed student
transportation done by 3rd parties as reported by one county; purchase of new radios,
uniforms and 3rd party transportation by one county; and the purchase of 23 new
buses by one county.
• The decrease in Other Support Services, Employee Benefits (E228) was due to
Denver County changing the process of how benefits were allocated across programs.
Connecticut
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• Connecticut does not collect data from local school districts for District Activities
(R1K).
Delaware
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• Delaware has not collected Tuition from Individuals (R1E) for several years.
• Food Services Operations expenditures are based on estimates.

H-4

Appendix H - State Notes

District of Columbia
Fiscal Year: October 1–September 30
Notes:
• The tuition payment reported in Tuition from Individuals (R1E) was for one LEA that
collected a tuition payment that should have been paid and managed by the state
education office. This was researched and resolved.
• Several LEAs reported Earnings on Investments (R1I) in FY16.
• The reporting structure changed for a large volume of LEAs that are serviced by
EdOps, which is an organization in DC that provides finance and accounting services.
This organization has standardized the reporting structure specifically for the LEA's
they support. Because of this structure change, there were significant changes in
several categories, such as instruction support services, student support services,
school administration expenditures, general administration expenditures, etc.
Florida

additional expenditures in transportation. The district coded the transportation
expenditures and revenues correctly in FY16. In future years, these expenditures will
be coded similar to FY16.
• Earnings on Investments (R1I) increased by 50% this year due to several districts that
did a bond refunding, which generated additional interest.
• Other Revenue from Federal Sources (R4D) increased by 30% this year due to the
five largest districts participation in the School Nutrition Program (SNP). These
districts received a larger entitlement attributed to an increase in the reported
reimbursable meals. This can come from increased enrollment and/or adding new
schools.
• Other Sources of Revenue (R5) increased by 50% this year due to a number of large
districts with bond sales and/or certificates of participation. Long Term Facilities
Maintenance was passed by legislation in May of 2015, which allowed districts to
pass bonds for large building maintenance projects.

•

word "non" when using the word instructional at the time the item was first
submitted. These purchases were for non-instructional purposes.
Operation and Maintenance Support Services, Property (E256) decreased by 30% due

there were a small number of districts that spent less than the prior year on
technology updates and/or capital leases.

to a district contracting services in order to support the transportation services they
provide which had been done in-house prior to this year. This district is technically a
third party entity who is contracting transportation services to provide to other school
districts. The company that they contract with is providing the actual transportation
services for the districts. The main district used to provide the actual transportation
services in house prior to FY16. The expenditures are coded correctly for FY16.

$33,326,663 in FY15 to $43,413,024 in FY16, an increase of $10,086,391, largely
due to Rockwood School District, a school district in St. Louis County, transitioning
to district operated transportation. Due to this transition, the district purchased a bus
fleet, which significantly increased the Student Transportation property expenditures.
• Missouri does not currently collect expenditures from districts in the state based on
funding sources of state, local, and federal funds; therefore, there is no information
that can currently be provided for Current Expenditures Paid from State and Local
Funds (CE1) and Current Expenditures Paid from Federal Funds (CE2). Missouri is

•
•

•

Other Local Government Units - Non-Property Tax (R1D) decreased more than 25%
due to Oklahoma's largest school district Metropolitan Area Projects (MAPS) tax
project. This project is in its final stages and all revenue has been received in previous
years.
The decreases in Student Transportation Support Services, Supplies (E247), Other
Support Services, Supplies (E248) and Other Support Services, Other (E268) are due
to Oklahoma’s revenue shortfall. School districts are finding every possible way to
reduce spending in other areas to keep teachers in the classroom for student
instruction. This would include sharing cost with other districts to save money in the
areas of student transportation and other support services. They have also reduced the
cost of supplies due to lack of funds.
Direct Cost Programs, Adult Education (E9B) decreased more than 25% from the
prior year due to several districts eliminating the adult education program in their
districts to save money.
State Per Pupil Expenditure (PPE15) decreased from the prior year due to Oklahoma's
revenue shortfall, which caused a decrease in funding to school districts.
Subsequently, student population is growing each year with no increase in state
funding sources.
Oklahoma does not have the ability to separate private sources from Current
Expenditures Paid from State and Local Funds (CE!) and Current Expenditures Paid
from Federal Funds (CE2); therefore, private sources are included in CE1 and CE2.

Oregon
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• The State of Oregon implemented full-time kindergarten in FY16. To that end, the
legislature changed the state funding formula to include full-time kindergarten and
the districts stopped charging tuition for their full-time kindergarten programs. The
significant drop in dollars reported for Tuition from Individuals (R1E reflects the end
of tuition payments. Portland Public Schools alone had a drop of $5,462,589.
• In FY15, four districts (Beaverton, Portland, West Linn and Medford) accounted for
$1.1 billion in long-term debt financing, with the top 10 school districts accounting
for $1.577 billion in long-term debt financing. FY15 showed a considerable increase
over FY 2014, so it does not come as a surprise there is a considerable decrease in
Other Sources of Revenue (R5) with the FY16 report.
• With 25-50% increase in long-term debt financing reported during FY15, it follows
that a decrease in interest and redemption of principle that was reported for FY16.
• Pre-K data is excluded from Oregon’s ADA and financial data.
Pennsylvania
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:

The increase in Other Support Services, Other (E268) was due to several LEAs
incurring short-term interest expenditures and Chester Community Charter School
paying $2.3 million dollars in interest and fees on short-term loans due to borrowing
needed during the PA budget impasse. In addition, Philadelphia City SD had an
increase of $2.4 million dollars attributed to short-term borrowing interest and line of
credit fees.
The PA Department of Education is actively working with the PA Office of
Comptroller Operations to determine what actions need to be taken to enable the State
and LEAs to report the Current Expenditures by Fun Type required by ESSA.
However, final decisions have not yet been reached and we are unable to report the
two new data items on the FY16 NPEFS.

West Virginia
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
•
Due to a review of the FY16 data related to Non-property Tax (R1B), it was
determined that the International Registration Plan (IRP) fees that were being coded
to Non-property Tax should be coded to Other Local Government Units-Property Tax
(R1C). These fees are based on the depreciated value of interstate motor vehicles,
which meets the normal accounting definition of a property tax. Other Local
Government Units-Property Tax (R1C) increased by $4,648,735 for the IRP fees.
Additionally, per the IRP manager with the West Virginia Department of
Transportation, this revenue stream increased by approximately $3 million from
FY15 to FY16. The increase was due to an increase in the total apportioned vehicles
registered over the prior year of nearly 1,500 vehicles. This was a one-year increase
and will not affect future years.
• Instruction Support Services, Supplies (E243) decreased by $19,814,060. This
decrease was due to one district (Kanawha) purchasing tablet computing devices
(iPads) for all students in grades 6 through 12 in FY15. The total cost of the purchase
in FY15 was $14,233,025.
• State Per Pupil Expenditure (PPE15) decreased from FY15 to FY16. Due to various
factors, current expenditures decreased from FY15 to FY16, which resulted in a
corresponding decrease to the state per pupil expenditure.
Wisconsin
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• Other Local Government Units-Property Tax (R1C) increased by more than
$5,000,000 and 25% more than prior year. Two districts (Wauwatosa and Lake
Geneva) received large revenues resulting from the closeout of Tax Incremental
Financing Districts.
• Direct Program Support for Private School Students (E4D) increased due to the
Parental Choice program being expanded statewide allowing more students to attend
private schools.
• The State does not collect ADA for students attending state charter schools, as there
is no statutory authority for us to require these schools to report this data to us.
Wyoming
Fiscal Year: July 1 – June 30

Puerto Rico
Fiscal Year: July 1–June 30
Notes:
• During FY16, a need assessment was performed by the Special Education Program.
This assessment resulted in the acquisition of additional supplies to increase the
integrated educative services provided, and thus caused in an increase in Student
Support Services, Supplies (E242).
• Currently, the Commonwealth faces a severe fiscal and economic crisis caused by a
decrease in its tax base, a decrease in its revenues, and a reduction in the federal
funding grant awards. Thus, this has resulted in a decrease on the available funding
for support services.
• The decrease in Instruction Support Services, Purchased Services (E233) was related
to the termination of the School Improvement Grant (SIG) during FY15.
Expenditures for SIG amounted to approximately $80 million during FY15 and were
not included in subsequent years.
• The disbursements during fiscal year FY16 for utility expenditures including
electrical power, water and sewer and telephone were reduced by approximately $44
million when compared to FY15 disbursements. The disbursements for security

services were reduced by $7.3 million, while school maintenance disbursements were
reduced by $7 million. Another reduction on disbursements for information systems
and technological support services was observed by the amount of $3.5 million.

decrease in the student membership which has decreased constantly for the past four
to five years, causing a direct impact in the number of students enrolled in the public
system.
