The NCES EDGE program \ncollaborates with the U.S. Census Bureau's Education Demographic, \nGeographic, and Economic Statistics (EDGE) Branch to develop point \nlocations for schools reported in the annual CCD directory file. The CCD\nprogram annually collects administrative and fiscal data about all \npublic schools, school districts, and state education agencies in the \nUnited States. The data are supplied by state education agency officials\nand include basic directory and contact information for schools and \nschool districts, as well as characteristics about student demographics,\nnumber of teachers, school grade span, and various other administrative\nconditions. CCD school and agency point locations are derived from \nreported information about the physical location of schools and agency \nadministrative offices. The point locations and administrative \nattributes in this data layer were developed from the 2017-2018 CCD \ncollection. For more information about NCES school point data, see: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Geographic/SchoolLocations . For more information about these CCD attributes, as well as additional attributes not included, see: https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/files.asp . \nNotes: \n\n-1 or M \n\nIndicates that the data are missing. \n\n-2 or N \n\nIndicates that the data are not applicable. \n\n-9 \n\nIndicates that the data do not meet NCES data quality standards. \n\nAll information contained in this file is in the public domain.
