Directory Of Public Elementary And Secondary Education Agencies PDF Download

One of the major responsibilities of the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) is to report on the condition of public elementary and secondary education in the United States. In support of this mission, NCES collects from state education agencies selected data items about all the public elementary and secondary schools and education agencies in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the 5 outlying areas: American Samoa, Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Information is also provided by the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) on its dependents schools overseas. The NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) surveys annually collect information on the universe of public schools and education agencies. This publication presents data primarily from the spring 1995 CCD survey. The introduction contains several tables that provide an overview of the patterns of elementary/secondary education agencies within the reporting states. They are followed by the listing of education agencies, organized by state and type of agency. The directory lists all reported public elementary/secondary education agencies in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, the five outlying areas, and the DOD. Six tables are included. Appendices contain the addresses of state education agencies and samples of the education-agency survey form and the school-universe survey form. (LMI)
