Source-reported nominal dollars. Amount fields are converted from source thousands to dollars. No inflation adjustment is applied. An exact identifier links published source rows; it does not erase consolidations, closures, reorganizations, or other real institutional changes between years. Constant-dollar comparisons use BLS CPI-U series CUUR0000SA0, annual U.S. city average; this is not a local cost-of-living index. Joined by exact Census PID6 or NCES LEAID; names are never used.

Still needed for a complete civic record

The federal layer is useful—but it is not the whole school board.

  • Current board members, seat structure, terms, and vacancies
  • Next board election, candidates, filing rules, and past results
  • Exact attendance and board-seat boundaries for an address
  • Meeting agendas, minutes, votes, policies, and public-record links
  • School-level outcomes, audited contracts and vendors, and inflation-adjusted spending comparisons
