The Common Core of Data (CCD) is an annual collection of public elementary and secondary education data by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the Institute of Education Sciences of the U.S. Department of Education. The U.S. Census Bureau conducts the data collection for the finance surveys on behalf of NCES. State education agencies (SEAs) report the finance data through an online data collection site. SEAs report student membership data through the U.S. Department of Education's ED"Facts" data collection system. This report presents findings on public education revenues and expenditures using fiscal year 2009 (FY 09) data from the National Public Education Financial Survey (NPEFS) of the CCD survey system. Programs covered in the NPEFS include regular, special, and vocational education; charter schools (if they reported data to the SEA); and state-run education programs (such as special education centers or education programs for incarcerated youth). While the tables in this report include data for all NPEFS respondents, the discussion in the text is limited to the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Data for all 10 of the current expenditure functions collected on NPEFS are presented in tables 2, 3, and 4. These 10 functions are combined to produce the four categories displayed in tables 7 and 8. Appended are: (1) Methodology and Technical Notes; and (2) Common Core of Data Glossary. (Contains 10 tables, 3 figures, 3 footnotes, and 1 online related data files link.) [For the Fiscal Year 2008 edition, see ED509800.]
