This article was originally published as an Early Estimates report. The universe data are from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD), "Early Estimates of Public Elementary/Secondary Education Survey." Technical notes and definitions from the original report have been omitted. | |||
The early estimates system is designed to allow the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to publish selected key statistics during the school year in which they are reported. The source of universe statistical information about public elementary and secondary education is The Common Core of Data (CCD)data collected annually by NCES from state education agencies. The estimates included in this report were reported in December 1999 for the 1999-2000 school year.* In early October 1999, survey forms were sent to each state education agency. States were asked to complete the form and return it by mail or facsimile (fax). States that had not responded by mid-November were contacted by telephone. All data were checked for reasonableness against prior years' reports, and follow-up calls were made to resolve any questions. When states did not supply a data item, NCES estimated a value. These values are footnoted in the tables. If one or more states required an estimated number, then the national total for that item is marked as estimated. Any state early estimate that indicated a change of greater than 10 percentage points more or less than the national growth rate was replaced with an adjusted early estimate. Forty-eight states, the District of Columbia, and two outlying areas participated in the 1999-2000 "Early Estimates of Public Elementary/Secondary Education Survey." The estimates reported here were provided by state education agencies and represent the best information on public elementary and secondary schools available to states at this stage of the school year. They are, however, subject to revision. All estimates for the two nonreporting states and the three outlying areas were calculated by NCES. (California, New Jersey, Guam, and Puerto Rico did not return the completed survey form. American Samoa's survey form was received after the cut-off date.) NCES also estimated missing data items for a number of reporting states. The tables in this publication include three kinds of data. "Reported" data are previously published figures. "Preliminary" data have not been published previously by NCES; for these, data collection is complete, and processing and data adjustments are through all but the final stage of review. "Estimated" data are those for the current (1999-2000) school year. Estimated data for the current school year are of three types: estimates derived by the states for NCES (most of the data are of this type); preliminary actual counts reported by individual states; and estimated values developed by NCES using a combination of state-specific and national data.
The estimates in this publication are key statistics reported during the 1999-2000 school year. They include the number of students in membership, teachers, and high school graduates for public elementary and secondary schools, and total revenues and expenditures for the operation of public elementary and secondary schools. Highlights of these statistics include the following:
Footnotes
* For other CCD surveys, in contrast, most nonfiscal data for school year 1999-2000 are reported to NCES from March 2000 through September 2000, after which they undergo NCES and state editing and are adjusted for missing data. High school graduate and fiscal data are reported a year later than student and teacher data.
