Public School Characteristics 2021-22

<p style='margin:12pt 0in; background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial;'>The National Center for
Education Statistics' (NCES) Education Demographic and Geographic Estimate
(EDGE) program develops annually updated point locations (latitude and
longitude) for public elementary and secondary schools included in the NCES
Common Core of Data (CCD). The CCD program annually collects administrative and
fiscal data about all public schools, school districts, and state education
agencies in the United States. The data are supplied by state education agency
officials and include basic directory and contact information for schools and
school districts, as well as characteristics about student demographics, number
of teachers, school grade span, and various other administrative conditions.
CCD school and agency point locations are derived from reported information
about the physical location of schools and agency administrative offices. <span>The point locations and administrative
attributes in this data layer were developed from the 2021-2022 CCD collection.</span> For more information about NCES school point data,
