Department of Education obligations in Georgia 5th District (GA-05)
USAspending.gov records $4,176,084,282.65 in Department of Education (agency 091) obligations with Georgia 5th District (GA-05) as place of performance. 353 awards carry that total, about 20.5% of the $20,366,413,605.18 district-wide obligation book on this extract. The pair is awarding agency 091 crossed with a congressional district geography tag, not the district's entire education budget and not a census of schools, students, or local education agencies. Amounts are obligations, not Treasury outlays.
Key figures
- Department of Education in GA-05 shows $4,176,084,282.65 in USAspending obligations on 353 awards.
- 353 awards are a row count, not a census of schools, students, or local education agencies.
- The join is agency 091 plus GA-05, not every Education dollar in Georgia.
- The total is commitments, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.
Education × GA-05 is a catalog join, not a campus list
Georgia 5th District (GA-05) pairs agency 091 with a district geography tag. City or campus names are not in the packet. This page will not use them as explanations. The Education slice is about one-fifth of the GA-05 book. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $4,176,084,282.65 on 353 awards for awarding agency 091 with Georgia 5th District (GA-05) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 353 awards equal 353 schools. A Department of Education amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.
Labor, HHS, or Interior awards that mention education in a description sit outside $4,176,084,282.65 unless those awards also carry agency 091 and GA-05 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and enrollment or proficiency scores is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as GA-05 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $4,176,084,282.65 in a district treasury. Other Georgia districts' Education cells are other joins. They are not a remainder of GA-05.
353 Education awards in Georgia 5th District
Three hundred fifty-three Education awards is a thicker Education file than AZ-03 or FL-02. Thicker grain is still not 353 schools. Mean obligation is about $11,830,267.09 if $4,176,084,282.65 were divided evenly across 353 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split student-aid vehicles from formula grants to education agencies. Unique recipients are unpublished.
This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Georgia 5th District for the stored district table and Department of Education for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 353 into a map of schools, students, or local education agencies inside Georgia 5th District. The $4,176,084,282.65 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.
GA-05 Education obligations are not tuition already paid
Education obligations are commitments, not tuition already paid. Education awards often obligate as assistance is awarded and draw as claims or invoices are processed. The $4,176,084,282.65 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not tuition already paid or construction already finished. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $4,176,084,282.65 into a yearly run rate.
Keep the obligation word on $4,176,084,282.65. Keep both Department of Education and Georgia 5th District (GA-05) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.
What the Georgia 5th District Education table omits
The extract has no roster of schools, students, or local education agencies. Facts remain $4,176,084,282.65, 353 awards, agency 091 (Department of Education), Georgia 5th District (GA-05), and a district-wide book of $20,366,413,605.18. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.
Georgia 5th District places GA-05 among other congressional districts. Department of Education places agency 091 among other awarding agencies. Georgia federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Georgia spending or of Department of Education's national book the packet never computed. The $4,176,084,282.65 figure is the tagged pair only. Other Georgia districts' Education cells are other joins. They are not a remainder of GA-05.
Citing Department of Education in GA-05
A clean footnote names Department of Education (agency 091), Georgia 5th District (GA-05), $4,176,084,282.65 in obligations, and 353 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 353 as a census of schools, students, or local education agencies. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in GA-05, and quote the agency page if you need Department of Education without a district filter. About 20.5% of the $20,366,413,605.18 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 091. The other is congressional district place of performance as GA-05. The headline $4,176,084,282.65 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Department of Education caused Georgia 5th District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.
