Abstract:
The purpose of this survey is to provide statistics about the finances of elementary and secondary public school systems. We collect revenue data including: local property tax, revenues from other school systems, private tuition and transportation payments, school lunch charges, direct federal and state aid, and federal aid passed through the state government. We also collect expenditures by function and object. These expenditures include: instruction, support service functions, salaries, benefits, and capital outlay. Other data included in this survey are indebtedness, and cash and investments. Fiscal data for school systems are collected centrally from state education agencies, since these are part of more detailed data routinely collected for state education aid programs.
