How much Special Education Grants To States spending is coded to Colorado 1st District (CO-01)?

USAspending.gov lists $577,506,366.34 in Special Education Grants To States obligations across 3 awards with place of performance in Colorado 1st District (CO-01). CFDA 84.027 × CO-01 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Colorado’s complete federal ledger. The cell is about 6.5% of the district’s published total ($8,856,542,820.99).

Do 3 awards mean 3 students, IEPs, or districts in CO-01?

No. Award count is a row count of USAspending actions and can include continuations and modifications. It is not a count of students, IEPs, or districts. The packet does not name recipients. Average obligation is about $192,502,122.11, a ratio of those two facts only.

Is $577,506,366.34 cash already paid in Colorado 1st District (CO-01)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $577,506,366.34 as services already delivered confuses those terms.

Where are the live CO-01 and CFDA 84.027 tables?

Colorado 1st District is the district parent. CFDA 84.027 is the program hub. Colorado federal spending is the Colorado parent. All spending ties lists other pairs. Prefer those tables after later ingests; this page quotes 84.027 × CO-01 at $577,506,366.34.

Place-of-performance CO-01 crossed with Special Education Grants To States (CFDA 84.027) yields $577,506,366.34 in USAspending.gov obligations on 3 awards. Three IDEA-style awards equal about 6.5% of Colorado 1st District’s $8,856,542,820.99 district book — a thin file whose share is larger than a three-row count might suggest because the district denominator is under nine billion. That pair is Special Education Grants To States and Colorado 1st District (CO-01) — not Colorado’s entire federal inflow, not Special Education Grants To States nationwide, and not cash already paid. Implied average obligation is about $192,502,122.11 ($577,506,366.34 ÷ 3). Correlation is not causation.

Key figures

Special Education Grants To States in Colorado 1st District (CO-01): $577,506,366.34 across 3 awards.
About 6.5% of the district’s $8,856,542,820.99 all-program obligation total.
Implied mean about $192,502,122.11 per record (ratio only).
CFDA 84.027 × CO-01 is an obligation join, not an IEP census or named-LEA list.
Figures are USAspending obligations, not outlays.

The Colorado 1st District (CO-01) filter on IDEA grants to states

CFDA 84.027 and congressional district CO-01 meet here. $577,506,366.34 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Special Education Grants To States’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Colorado 1st District (CO-01), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split preschool from school-age IDEA, and it does not name LEAs. 3 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not an IEP census, a student-count file, or a named-LEA roster.

Dividing $577,506,366.34 by 3 yields about $192,502,122.11 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a published cost per child and not a typical state grant. Three awards against a $577.5 million IDEA cell is still formula-style concentration. Do not treat CO-01’s 84.027 cell as a synonym for every special-education account nationwide. Open Colorado 1st District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 84.027 for CFDA 84.027 without the CO-01 filter, Colorado federal spending for every program in the Colorado extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $577,506,366.34.

The CFDA 84.027 Special Education Grants To States

USAspending labels CFDA 84.027 as SPECIAL EDUCATION GRANTS TO STATES. That catalog number produced $577,506,366.34 when crossed with Colorado 1st District (CO-01) place of performance. The program hub does not require CO-01 geography. The district hub does not require Special Education Grants To States. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 3 awards. The packet does not split preschool from school-age IDEA, and it does not name LEAs.

Correlation is not causation: Colorado 1st District (CO-01) did not cause $577,506,366.34 by existing as a large or small place, and special-education child-count figures are not packet facts. The join is 84.027 × CO-01 only. It is not an IEP census, a student-count file, or a named-LEA roster. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.
