Department of Education in Missouri

Education awards tagged to Missouri

Department of Education as awarding agency, Missouri as place-of-performance: 2,667 records summing to $5,556,051,968.08. A Department of Education award coded outside MO is out. An award in Missouri from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Missouri (MO) excludes Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. A Kansas City, Kansas-coded award is KS.

Two thousand six hundred sixty-seven awards is a thicker Education file, still far below a HUD or USDA assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 2,667 as 2,667 unique enrollment, unique districts, or named cities. The overlay Department of Education in Missouri is the both-keys table. Missouri federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without an MO filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

St. Louis and Kansas City are unpublished. Do not treat 2,667 as two metro totals added together. Correlation is not causation: Missouri did not “cause” $5,556,051,968.08 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × MO only.

Not St. Louis versus Kansas City

$5,556,051,968.08 does not measure enrollment, unique districts, or named cities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and an MO place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 2,667 awards as a census of enrollment, unique districts, or named cities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Missouri federal spending or Department of Education matched $5,556,051,968.08 and 2,667, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Kansas, Illinois, and Arkansas Education joins are other pairs, not addends.
