Edunomics Lab is building NERD$: National Education Resource Database on Schools to capture states’ per-student spending by school as required under ESSA. NERD$ compiles year-over-year data into a publicly accessible, permanent location and makes it usable for research, policy, and practice.
To share your state’s data file for inclusion in the database, please email Lucy Hadley: nerds@georgetown.edu.
