Department of Education in Tennessee

What the Education–Tennessee join is

Awarding agency 091 and place-of-performance state TN meet here. $8,242,137,539.10 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Education’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Tennessee, and not an outlay register. K–12 and higher-education awarding offices can share 091. Do not quote $8.24 billion as ‘Tennessee universities only’ or as ‘K–12 only.’

2,179 is a moderate row count, consistent with a mix of formula vehicles and project awards, without naming those vehicles. Modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Dividing $8,242,137,539.10 by 2,179 yields about $3.78 million per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line.

Open Department of Education in Tennessee for the live filtered table, Tennessee federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Education for agency 091 without a Tennessee filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $8,242,137,539.10.

Awarding agency 091 as the Education side

USAspending labels awarding agency 091 as Department of Education. That code produced $8,242,137,539.10 when crossed with Tennessee place of performance. The agency-wide 091 hub does not require TN geography. The Tennessee hub does not require Education. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 2,179 awards.

Per-pupil aid, a BEP state-formula total, and a Pell-versus-Title-I split are unpublished. 2,179 awards is not a school count. A second Education slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Tennessee’s 091 cell as a synonym for every Education account.

Questions

How much Education spending is coded to Tennessee?

USAspending.gov lists $8,242,137,539.10 in Department of Education obligations across 2,179 Tennessee-coded awards. Agency 091 × TN is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Tennessee’s complete federal ledger. Department of Education in Tennessee is the live overlay for this pair. Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $3.78 million, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does this total include every Education program in Tennessee?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup, not a program pie. $8,242,137,539.10 is the combined obligation sum for agency 091 inside Tennessee coding. Open Department of Education in Tennessee to inspect award lines. 2,179 is an action count, not a program count. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a CFDA split from the department label.

Is $8,242,137,539.10 cash already paid in Tennessee?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $8,242,137,539.10 as checks already cleared in Tennessee confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 2,179 awards. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.
