Education awards tagged to Wyoming
Department of Education as awarding agency, Wyoming as place-of-performance: 334 records summing to $932,267,562.86. A Department of Education award coded outside WY is out. An award in Wyoming from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Wyoming (WY) excludes Colorado, Utah, Montana, Idaho, South Dakota, and Nebraska. A Fort Collins-coded award is Colorado even if the Front Range story sounds similar.
Three hundred thirty-four awards sit behind $932,267,562.86. That row count can mix large instruments with smaller modifications. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 334 as 334 unique school districts, unique campuses, or a census of classrooms. The overlay Department of Education in Wyoming is the both-keys table. Wyoming federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without an WY filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Cheyenne, Casper, and Laramie share one WY stamp. Education program offices can share awarding-agency 091 without a published program pie. Correlation is not causation: Wyoming did not cause $932,267,562.86 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × WY only.
334 rows are not 334 districts
$932,267,562.86 does not measure school districts, unique campuses, or a census of classrooms. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and an WY place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 334 awards as a census of school districts, unique campuses, or a census of classrooms. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wyoming federal spending or Department of Education matched $932,267,562.86 and 334, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state Education joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $932,267,562.86 by 334 yields about $2,791,220.25 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Education line and not a published median.
