This package contains nine different kinds of datasets with data at three different levels: state, district, and school. To reference a table for a particular level, you will need to append the suffix state, dist, or sch, respectively. For example, ach_grade_state would provide summary data for the entire state of Kentucky, while ach_grade_sch would provide the same data for each public school in Kentucky.
The datasets included in this package are:
acctbly_...: Accountability system scores and labels.ach_grade_...: K-PREP test data by grade level (3-8, HS).ach_level_...: K-PREP test data by school level (Elementary School, Middle School, High School).act_...: ACT test data.ap_...: AP test data.ccr_...: College/Career Readiness data.fin_summary_...: Financial summary data (district & state only).frpl_...: Free/Reduced Price Lunch Eligibility data.grad_...: Four-year cohort graduation rate data.iep_...: Individualized Education Plan (IEP) counts and rates.lep_...: Limited English Proficiency (LEP) counts and rates.profile_...: Enrollment, Title 1 status, longitude, latitude, and NCES IDrace_...: Racial demographic data.rev_exp_...: Revenue and expenditure data (district & state only).seek_...: SEEK funding data (district & state only).tax_...: Tax data (district & state only).teach_...: Teacher data.discipline_...: Discipline data.legal_...: Legal event data.behavior_events...: Behavior event data.behavior_context...: Behavior event data by context.behavior_location...: Behavior event data by location.behavior_ses...: Behavior event data by student socioeconomic status.behavior_grade...: Behavior event data by grade level.
Each dataset includes a unique identifier for the school/district/state, sch_id. This variable is helpful for joining data from multiple tables, as is year, which indicates the school year during which the data was generated.
