The National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Education Demographic and Geographic Estimates (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 were developed from the 2022-2023 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.

The National Center for Education Statistics’ (NCES) Education Demographic and Geographic Estimate (EDGE) program develops annually updated school district boundary composite files that include public elementary, secondary, and unified school district boundaries clipped to the U.S. shoreline. School districts are special-purpose administrative units designed by state and local officials to provide public education for local residents. District boundaries are collected for NCES by the U.S. Census Bureau to develop demographic estimates and to support educational research and program administration. The NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) program is an annual collection of basic administrative characteristics for all public schools, school districts, and state education agencies in the United States. These characteristics are reported by state education officials and include directory information, number of students, number of teachers, grade span, and other conditions. The administrative attributes in this layer were developed from the 2019-2020 CCD collection.

This feature layer presents Public Schools defined by the Common Core Data (CCD) from a former U.S. Government database, with an added Placekey to enable joining with other datasets. Placekey is a free, universal standard identifier for any physical place, so that the data pertaining to those places can be shared across organizations easily. This feature layer was created using exported data from this Public Schools layer and is intended for testing and demo purposes. This Public Schools feature dataset is composed of all Public elementary and secondary education facilities in the United States as defined by the Common Core of Data (CCD, https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/), National Center for Education Statistics (NCES, https://nces.ed.gov), US Department of Education for the 2017-2018 school year. This includes all Kindergarten through 12th grade schools as tracked by the Common Core of Data. Included in this dataset are military schools in US territories and referenced in the city field with an APO or FPO address. DOD schools represented in the NCES data that are outside of the United States or US territories have been omitted. This feature class contains all MEDS/MEDS+ as approved by NGA. Complete field and attribute information is available in the ”Entities and Attributes” metadata section. Geographical coverage is depicted in the thumbnail above and detailed in the Place Keyword section of the metadata. This release includes the addition of 3065 new records, modifications to the spatial location and/or attribution of 99,287 records, and removal of 2996 records not present in the NCES CCD data.

This dataset contains data from the National Center for Education Statistics' Academic Library Survey, which was gathered every two years from 1996 - 2014, and annually in IPEDS starting in 2014 (this dataset has continued to only merge data every two years, following the original schedule). This data was merged, transformed, and used for research by Starr Hoffman and Samantha Godbey.This data was merged using R; R scripts for this merge can be made available upon request. Some variables changed names or definitions during this time; a view of these variables over time is provided in the related Figshare Project. Carnegie Classification changed several times during this period; all Carnegie classifications were crosswalked to the 2000 classification version; that information is also provided in the related Figshare Project. This data was used for research published in several articles, conference papers, and posters starting in 2018 (some of this research used an older version of the dataset which was deposited in the University of Nevada, Las Vegas's repository).SourcesAll data sources were downloaded from the National Center for Education Statistics website https://nces.ed.gov/.

About SSOCSThe School Survey on Crime and Safety is a national survey of principals in U.S. public elementary, middle, and high schools. The survey covers topics such as:Frequency and types of crimes occurring at schoolDisciplinary actions allowed and used in schoolsPolicies and practices designed to prevent or reduce crime in schoolsCharacteristics of school climate related to safetyThe SSOCS was first conducted in the 1999-2000 school year. Data has been collected every other school year from 2004 to 2010 and from 2016 to 2020. The SSOCS data collection in the 2021-22 school year is the final planned collection.About SCSThe School Crime Supplement (SCS) is part of the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS), which is led by the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) at the U.S. Department of Justice. NCES collaborates with BJS to survey students ages 12 to 18 years old in grades 6 through 12 about crime and safety at school and in the surrounding neighborhood.The SCS asks students about topics such as:Fighting, bullying, and hate-related behaviorPrevalence of guns and weaponsGangs at schoolAvailability of alcohol and drugs at schoolFear and avoidance behaviorsThe SCS was first conducted in 1989, followed by administrations in 1995 and 1999, and was conducted every other year thereafter, from 2001 to 2019. Data collection was postponed during the COVID-19 pandemic and resumed in 2022. The next collection of SCS is scheduled for 2025.Data OrganizationThe categories from the original tables library are represented as folders. Each table has its own folder within the category folders. Each table has an excel (XLS) and excel SE file associated with it. The catalog CSV in the top level folder provides a crosswalk between the original table names and the current folder names.Additionally, there are folders for Questionnaires and Reports from the SCS and SSOCS, which were downloaded from the NCES website. There is also a folder of SSOCS data users manuals, also downloaded from the NCES resource library. The SCS users manuals are already available in ICPSR, see listing here: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/crime/scs/data/.

The High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) is a nationally representative, longitudinal study of more than 21,000 9th graders in 944 schools who will be followed through their secondary and postsecondary years. The study focuses on understanding students' trajectories from the beginning of high school into postsecondary education, the workforce, and beyond. What students decide to pursue when, why, and how are crucial questions for HSLS:09, especially, but not solely, in regards to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) courses, majors, and careers.High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS:09) Features Nationally representative, longitudinal study of 23,000+ 9th graders from 944 schools in 2009, with a first follow-up in 2012 and a second follow-up in 2016Students followed throughout secondary and postsecondary yearsSurveys of students, their parents, math and science teachers, school administrators, and school counselorsA new student assessment in algebraic skills, reasoning, and problem solving for 9th and 11th grades10 state representative datasets HSLS:09 Data Collection Waves Base Year (2009)First Follow-up (2012)2013 Update (2013)High School Transcripts (2013-2014)Second Follow-up (2016)Postsecondary Transcripts (2017-18)

Colleges and Universities This feature layer, utilizing data from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), displays colleges and universities in the U.S. and its territories.
