Department of Education federal obligations in New Mexico

The Department of Education shows $3,084,413,168.58 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to New Mexico, across 1,107 awards. Awarding-agency 091 and New Mexico (NM) are the pair. One thousand one hundred seven records is a typical Education formula-file size: hundreds of awards, not hundreds of thousands. The implied mean is about $2.79 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Education awards tagged to New Mexico

Department of Education as awarding agency, New Mexico as place-of-performance: 1,107 records summing to $3,084,413,168.58. A Department of Education award coded outside NM is out. An award in New Mexico from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. New Mexico (NM) excludes Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Oklahoma. An El Paso-coded award is Texas even if a student commutes.

One thousand one hundred seven records is a typical Education formula-file size: hundreds of awards, not hundreds of thousands. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,107 as 1,107 unique enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. The overlay Department of Education in New Mexico is the both-keys table. New Mexico federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Education is the agency book without an NM filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not name Title I, IDEA, or Pell as line items inside $3,084,413,168.58. Unique LEAs are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: New Mexico did not “cause” $3,084,413,168.58 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 091 × NM only.

Not a report card or enrollment ledger

$3,084,413,168.58 does not measure enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 091 and an NM place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,107 awards as a census of enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If New Mexico federal spending or Department of Education matched $3,084,413,168.58 and 1,107, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Texas, Arizona, and Colorado Education joins are other pairs, not addends.

New Mexico, not a Four Corners school map

Place of performance NM is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. New Mexico (NM) excludes Texas, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Oklahoma. An El Paso-coded award is Texas even if a student commutes. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not name Title I, IDEA, or Pell as line items inside $3,084,413,168.58. Unique LEAs are unpublished. This packet does not split $3,084,413,168.58 by city, county, or named facility. 1,107 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

State-administered grants versus checks to districts

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $3,084,413,168.58 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in New Mexico confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

New Mexico’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 1,107-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $3,084,413,168.58.

Citing Education in New Mexico

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Education (agency 091) obligated $3,084,413,168.58 on 1,107 awards coded to New Mexico. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as enrollment, NAEP scores, or unique school districts.

Prefer Department of Education in New Mexico if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. New Mexico federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to NM. Department of Education is the 091 parent without the NM filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $3,084,413,168.58.

A usable footnote names Department of Education, New Mexico, $3,084,413,168.58, and 1,107. The compact headline $3.08 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $2.79 million is $3,084,413,168.58 divided by 1,107. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
