Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies obligations in Louisiana

Parish classrooms sit behind five prime records

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 84.010 meets Louisiana place of performance. The dollar book is $1,872,510,790.02. The award count is 5. Title I formula funds typically post at the state educational agency. Five prime records do not mean five parishes received the entire book, and they do not mean recovery from a particular hurricane drove the total—this packet has no disaster flag.

The join does not prove that Louisiana’s census poverty, urban concentration in the New Orleans or Baton Rouge metros, or school-count caused $1,872,510,790.02. Those are other series. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Louisiana’s full federal education total has left the CFDA-by-state definition. The 5 figure is a record count, including modifications, not a count of eligible children.

Five awards and an SEA-scale mean

Five awards under $1,872,510,790.02 imply a mean near $374,502,158 per award. That quotient is an artifact of how Title I is filed, not a typical parish allocation. The packet has no median and no share on the largest of the five records.

Cite both the thin award tape and the thick dollar column. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast the mean as an Orleans Parish or East Baton Rouge grant.

Louisiana’s 84.010 cell versus FEMA and CDBG lines

Louisiana’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. Title I is an Education Department line. Hazard-mitigation and individual-household disaster assistance are different catalog numbers on the same statewide stack. $1,872,510,790.02 is not Louisiana’s all-program total. The nationwide CFDA 84.010 page includes every state, so it is not this cell.

Place-of-performance on an SEA Title I award usually sits on Louisiana even when classrooms are parish-level. This packet does not reallocate dollars to LEAs. Read the overlay as a coding view of 5 awards.

Obligations versus school-year drawdowns

The $1,872,510,790.02 figure is an obligation sum. SEA and LEA drawdowns can trail the federal obligation. SpendingVault does not publish a 84.010-in-Louisiana outlay total in this packet. Mixing LEAP scores or poverty rates with this award file leaves the USAspending series.

Cite the join as CFDA 84.010 × Louisiana, $1,872,510,790.02, 5 awards, obligations only.

Parent hubs

The Louisiana × Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,872,510,790.02 on 5 awards. The Louisiana spending page and the CFDA 84.010 program page are the parents. The Louisiana programs index and the ties index list other pairs.

None of those links convert the cell into school counts or into outlays this packet omits.

What Louisiana Title I is not

Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies in Louisiana are not a parish poverty ranking and not a hurricane-recovery score. The $1,872,510,790.02 figure is the CFDA 84.010 × Louisiana cell. Five awards describe SEA-level filing, not five parishes. This packet has no disaster flag; FEMA IHP and Hazard Mitigation Grant are different catalog numbers on the same statewide stack.

A reader who treats Title I as Louisiana’s education-plus-disaster book has left the join. Cite 84.010 and Louisiana together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 5-award count. LEA subgrants can lag the federal obligation. Later bulk files can revise both dollars and the record count.

Louisiana’s Title I cell also does not include parish allocation runs, schoolwide flags, or recovery-school-district splits. Those files live with the SEA. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 84.010 × Louisiana, $1,872,510,790.02, 5 awards. If a later extract changes the five-row tape, the implied mean near $374,502,158 moves with it. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a parish-poverty story.

Keep both sides of the join in any citation: Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies and Louisiana, obligations only, five awards on $1,872,510,790.02.

USAspending.gov shows $1,872,510,790.02 in CFDA 84.010 obligations coded to Louisiana across 5 awards. The join uses the program number and Louisiana place of performance. The total is obligations, not outlays.

Why only 5 awards for $1.87 billion?

Title I formula funds often post as a few prime awards to the state educational agency. The extract counts 5 records tagged to CFDA 84.010 and Louisiana. The implied mean is about $374,502,158 per award. That mean is not a typical parish allocation.

Is $1.87 billion Louisiana’s full federal spending?

No. $1,872,510,790.02 is only the Title I Grants to Local Educational Agencies cell. Other CFDA programs with Louisiana place of performance sit on the statewide hub. Nationwide 84.010 is not limited to Louisiana.

Do these obligations equal cash spent in classrooms?

No. $1,872,510,790.02 is an obligation sum. Outlays are a different USAspending series. LEA subgrants can lag the federal obligation.
