Department of Education in Delaware

Education awards tagged to Delaware

Department of Education as awarding agency, Delaware as place-of-performance: 372 records summing to $1,285,638,961.81. A Department of Education award coded outside DE is out. An award in Delaware from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Delaware (DE) excludes Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. A Pennsylvania-coded award is PA even if a student commutes from Wilmington.

Three hundred seventy-two records is a thinner Education formula-file than a 926-row North Dakota cell, still hundreds of awards rather than unique districts. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 372 as 372 unique enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. The overlay Department of Education in Delaware is the both-keys table. Delaware federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without a DE filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not name Title I, IDEA, or Pell as line items inside $1,285,638,961.81. Correlation is not causation: Delaware did not cause $1,285,638,961.81 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × DE only.

Not a report card or enrollment ledger

$1,285,638,961.81 does not measure enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and a DE place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 372 awards as a census of enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Delaware federal spending or Department of Education matched $1,285,638,961.81 and 372, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey Education joins are other pairs, not addends.
