What the Education–South Carolina join is
Awarding agency 091 and place-of-performance state SC meet here. $4,739,313,878 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Education’s nationwide budget, not South Carolina’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. Statewide school-district and university folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a student census.
1,514 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a moderate award list beside a multi-billion obligation total. A moderate row list can still mix large formula awards with smaller instruments. The join does not rank South Carolina against other states and does not name districts or campuses inside the extract.

Education actions under a South Carolina geography tag
Dividing $4,739,313,878 by 1,514 yields about $3,130,326 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Title I grant. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-recipient census and not a count of students. District names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.
Statewide school-district and university folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative’s extra columns.
