Public School Characteristics - Current

The National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Education Demographic and Geographic Estimate (EDGE) program develops annually updated point locations (latitude and longitude) for public elementary and secondary schools included in the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD). The CCD program annually collects administrative and fiscal data about all public schools, school districts, and state education agencies in the United States. The data are supplied by state education agency officials and include basic directory and contact information for schools and school districts, as well as characteristics about student demographics, number of teachers, school grade span, and various other administrative conditions. CCD school and agency point locations are derived from reported information about the physical location of schools and agency administrative offices. The point locations and administrative attributes in this data layer represent the most current CCD collection. For more information about NCES school point data, see: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Geographic/SchoolLocations. For more information about these CCD attributes, as well as additional attributes not included, see: https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/files.asp. Notes: -1 or M Indicates that the data are missing. -2 or N Indicates that the data are not applicable. -9 Indicates that the data do not meet NCES data quality standards.

美国国家教育统计中心（National Center for Education Statistics，NCES）下属的教育人口与地理估算（Education Demographic and Geographic Estimate，EDGE）项目，会为纳入NCES通用数据核心（Common Core of Data，CCD）的公立中小学生成按年度更新的点位坐标（纬度与经度）。CCD项目每年都会采集美国所有公立学校、学区以及州教育机构的行政与财政数据。此类数据由州教育机构官方人员提供，涵盖学校与学区的基础名录及联系信息，同时包含学生人口统计学特征、教师数量、学校学段跨度以及其他各类行政相关属性。CCD的学校与机构点位坐标源自上报的学校实体位置及机构行政办公室的相关信息。本数据图层中的点位坐标与行政属性均为最新一期CCD采集的成果。如需了解更多NCES学校点位数据的相关信息，请访问：https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Geographic/SchoolLocations。如需了解这些CCD属性字段以及未纳入本数据集的其他附加属性，请访问：https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/files.asp。注释：-1或M表示数据缺失；-2或N表示数据不适用；-9表示数据未达到NCES的数据质量标准。本数据集覆盖的年度包括：2024-25、2023-24、2022-23、2021-22、2020-21、2019-20、2018-19、2017-18。本文件包含的所有信息均属于公共领域。建议数据使用者查阅NCES项目文档及要素类元数据，以了解本数据集的局限性与合理使用方式。
