Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants — CFDA 84.367

What $9.47 billion on 254 awards means

Assistance listing 84.367 is titled SUPPORTING EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTION STATE GRANTS (FORMERLY IMPROVING TEACHER QUALITY STATE GRANTS) in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $9,470,850,008.31. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not a stipend already paid.

254 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $9,470,850,008.31 by 254 produces a mean near $37.3 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical teacher salary and not a per-classroom professional-development cost. State-grant dollars often sit on a modest number of large state actions, which is why 254 records can carry $9,470,850,008.31.

82 organizational recipients appear on those rows. 52 states are coded for place of performance. Neither count converts the obligation total into a teacher headcount.

82 recipients across 52 states

CFDA 84.367 lists 82 recipients and 52 states against 254 awards. Recipient count is not unique teachers. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores. A state education agency can appear on multiple awards; 82 is not a headcount of school districts.

Fifty-two states is a coded-jurisdiction span consistent with a state-grant program that reaches most states and territories in the file. Because 254 awards are few relative to the dollar total, a handful of large state actions can move $9,470,850,008.31 without a matching jump in the 82-recipient count.

Obligations versus education outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $9,470,850,008.31 figure for CFDA 84.367 can include commitments that will disburse as grant years continue. A separate teacher-workforce survey or a Treasury outlay table is a different publication. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 84.367 program page. Do not stretch 254 awards or 82 recipients to cover every teacher-quality dollar tagged under another listing.

What the 84.367 tables omit

The Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a teacher roster, not a professional-development calendar, and not a ranking of districts. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $9,470,850,008.31.

Place-of-performance on 52 states is a coding field. A statewide grantee coded to one cell can dominate geography while classrooms sit in many districts. Read the program page before any state split.

A worked reading of the 84.367 extract

Start from the four packet facts on CFDA 84.367: $9,470,850,008.31 in obligations, 254 awards, 82 recipients, and 52 states. The mean near $37.29 million per award is a quotient from those two packet totals, not a typical unit cost and not a household or client rate. If a later USAspending.gov file adds a few large actions, dollars can jump while 82 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 254 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $9,470,850,008.31.

Nothing in the extract splits SUPPORTING EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTION STATE GRANTS (FORMERLY IMPROVING TEACHER QUALITY STATE GRANTS) into subaccounts, fiscal years, or outlay versus obligation series beyond the stored totals. Those cuts live in other publications. Treat CFDA 84.367 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 254 awards and 82 recipients next to the dollars so the record count is visible beside $9,470,850,008.31. Name the series as obligations, not outlays, every time the figure is reused. Agency pages show awarding organizations; they do not replace this listing’s obligation total.

Do not convert 254 awards into teachers trained, or 82 recipients into a district census. The 52-state field is place-of-performance coding in the assistance extract. Read the SUPPORTING EFFECTIVE INSTRUCTION STATE GRANTS (FORMERLY IMPROVING TEACHER QUALITY STATE GRANTS) hub before inferring a geographic story from the dollar total alone. If a number you expected is missing from $9,470,850,008.31, the usual cause is a different reporting concept rather than a gap in the 254 award rows.

Questions

How much is obligated under Supporting Effective Instruction State Grants?

Why does CFDA 84.367 have only 254 awards?
