What the Education-South Dakota join is
Awarding agency 091 and place-of-performance state SD meet here. $1,243,159,899.49 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Education's nationwide budget, not South Dakota's entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. Rural-school, BIE-adjacent, and statewide Title folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a census of South Dakota classrooms.
969 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — hundreds of award actions behind a billion-dollar obligation total. Hundreds of rows can mix formula grants with smaller instruments. The join does not rank South Dakota against other states and does not name districts inside the extract.

969 Education actions under one South Dakota filter
Dividing $1,243,159,899.49 by 969 yields about $1,282,930.75 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Title grant. A second Education slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat South Dakota's 091 total as a synonym for every Education account.
Rural-school, bie-adjacent, and statewide title 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.
