`education_district_finance`

Pack: education-data · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/education-data/mcp

School district FUNDING AND SPENDING — revenue by source (federal / state / local) and expenditure by function, plus computed PER-PUPIL spending. Keyless federal data (NCES CCD school district finance survey, F-33). Use for “how much does spend per student”, “school funding by district in ”, “which districts get the most federal money”, “local vs state share of school funding”. Pass a state to rank districts, or a leaid (from education_find_districts) for one district. Note the finance survey lags the directory data by 1-2 years.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`state`	string	no	US state name or 2-letter abbreviation. Required unless leaid is given.
`leaid`	string	no	Specific district LEA id from education_find_districts.
`year`	number	no	Fiscal year. Default 2019 (the finance survey lags).
`sort_by`	string	no	Ranking field, largest first. Default per_pupil_spending.
`limit`	number	no	Max districts to return (1-100, default 25).
