USAspending.gov is the source.

What CFDA 93.600 × FY2024 records

This page joins HEAD START to fiscal year 2024. $64,925,188,962.83 is the obligation sum on that pair. 4,100 awards underlie the FY cell. It is not every Head Start dollar across years, not every FY2024 assistance line, and not an outlay. /programs/93.600/ (CFDA 93.600) drops the year filter. /fiscal-years/2024/ (FY2024 federal spending) drops the 93.600 filter. Only this tie applies both.

The FY cell is 87.3% of the program-wide $74,374,162,611.85 book in this extract. A large preschool cell is easy to misread as funded slots or named grantees. This packet lists neither. Do not invent centers, delegate agencies, or enrollment. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations. Correlation with wait-list headlines is not causation.

FY2024 beside the longer Head Start book

The catalog title is HEAD START. SpendingVault does not grade Early Head Start versus Head Start, duration options, or eligibility. $64,925,188,962.83 is an FY2024 obligation sum, not a classroom score. Child Care and Development Block Grant and TANF use other CFDA keys. Mixing those siblings into $64,925,188,962.83 would invent a combined early-childhood total the packet never computed.

Program-wide Head Start obligations in this extract are $74,374,162,611.85 on 5,258 awards. FY2024 is one yearlyTrend row inside that book. Adding the CFDA 93.600 hub into $64,925,188,962.83 would double-count. Later ingests can restate an open year; keep the obligation label.

4,100 FY2024 awards are not a center census

4,100 is the FY2024 award-record count on CFDA 93.600, not 5,258 program-wide rows and not 4,100 unique grantees. Continuations and modifications add lines. Dividing $64,925,188,962.83 by 4,100 would invent a typical center award this page does not publish. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the Head Start FY2024 table omits

No outlays, no state table, no named grantees, no slot ledger, no Early Head Start split. Place-of-performance geography is unpublished here. Quote Head Start and FY2024 with $64,925,188,962.83. Keep CFDA 93.600 in the citation. FEC donation tables are a different dataset and do not fund this cell.

Open /programs/93.600/ for CFDA 93.600, /fiscal-years/2024/ for FY2024 federal spending, /programs/ for All programs, and /ties/ for All spending ties. Those parents are larger than this cell. Keep both join sides on the same line as $64,925,188,962.83. USAspending.gov remains the source.

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is CFDA 93.600. The other is fiscal year 2024. $64,925,188,962.83 is the obligation sum on that intersection, not a forecast and not a claim that Head Start caused enrollment to change.

CFDA 93.600's program-wide award-record count is 5,258, not a FY2024-only census of centers or children. Obligations of $64,925,188,962.83 are not outlays. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 93.600 × FY2024 pair. Do not add parent hubs into this yearlyTrend cell. Campaign-finance tables do not fund these USAspending obligations. The 87.3% share is $64,925,188,962.83 divided by the program-wide $74,374,162,611.85, not a budget score. Unique recipients remain unpublished on this Head Start FY2024 join. Agency and place-of-performance splits are omitted from this packet. Quote CFDA 93.600, fiscal year 2024, and $64,925,188,962.83 in one sentence. The All programs index and All spending ties index are larger than this cell. A later USAspending ingest can restate $64,925,188,962.83 without changing the join keys. This page is not a classroom, slot, or grantee census. 4,100 FY2024 award records are not 5,258 program-wide rows.
