Users can get a quick view of the SY 2017-18 CCD data in comparison to the SY 2016-17 release by comparing the frequencies included in the companion files described below.Other Resources to Support CCD Data UseRefer to the CCD Online Documentation () for a full list of CCD resources. Contact the Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics, EDFacts Partner Support Center (EDEN_SS@) for more information. While much of the file documentation is unchanged from year to year, the resources listed below are specific to each release cycle:Companion files. Each CCD file is paired with a file-specific companion file that includes the file layout and frequencies for all variables. State Data Notes. This document provides detailed information from the data quality follow-up with states for that collection cycle, including information on state trends. File specifications. The EDFacts file specifications are the guidance states use as they prepare and submit the data files that make up the CCD. Data changes for SY 2017-18Changes in Student Membership Reporting Guidance (SY 2016-17 to SY 2017-18). The guidance for reporting students to EDFacts at the LEA level changed from SY 2016-17 to SY 2017-18, requiring students be reported in the LEA where students are served (rather than in the LEA that receives funds for that students’ education). While not all changes can be necessarily attributed to the change in file specification guidance, data users should take this guidance change into consideration when using the CCD membership data.Note that no changes were made to the guidance for reporting membership at the school level; states have been and continue to be instructed to report students in the school that they attend. Refer to Document 10: Changes in Membership Reporting Guidance 2016-17 to 2017-18 in the CCD reference library for detailed information on this change. This document summarizes the guidance for SY 2016-17 and SY 2017-18 and provides summary tabulations to help users see how LEA membership data changed between 2016-17 and 2017-18. Changes to approach to derive LEVEL in LEA- and school-level file releases (SY 2016-17 to SY 2017-18). CCD public file releases include 3 sets of variables for users to characterize the level of instruction in an LEA or a school: Grades offered flags. These are 18 Yes/No flags from PK through Grade 13, plus Ungraded, Adult education, and No Grades offered. This information is submitted by the states. GSLO and GSHI. GSLO is the lowest grade offered in the school and GSHI is the highest grade offered in the school. These two variables are derived based on the grades offered flags. LEVEL. This variable is derived and describes the general characteristic of the school or LEA. Through the SY 2016-17 file release, there were a total of 8 possible values for LEVEL and most LEAs and schools were assigned to one of three main values (Elementary, Middle, and High). All LEVEL assignments were based the lowest grade (GSLO) and highest grade (GSHI) reported for the LEA/school. Starting with the SY 2017-18 CCD files, ED revised the logic to derive LEVEL with the primary goal of recategorizing as many of the LEAs/schools in the “Other” category into categories that are more meaningful for data users. The new approach uses exact grades reported to determine LEVEL based on the preponderance of grade types served by the LEA/school (rather than GSLO and GSHI). Note also that LEVEL now has two categories that are new for SY 2017-18 – Prekindergarten and Secondary (which are LEAs/schools that offer instruction at the secondary level but do not offer Grade 12). Refer to Document 11: Changes to SCH and LEA Level Assignments in the CCD reference library for detailed information on this change. This document provides the logic used for the legacy and revised approaches as well as before and after analysis of the SY 2017-18 data to help users understand the impact of these changes. Multi-year Summary TablesThe remaining pages of this release notes document include two groups of summary tables to help users understand this data release in the context of other public CCD data releases. Group 1: National totals from summary tables. Summary values across the 50 states + DC with additional adjustments to generate correct national estimates (such as grouping New York City into a single school district and applying the BIEA/BIES flags to eliminate double counting of Bureau of Indian Education schools)Group 2: Selected frequencies from the LEA- and school-level data files. Summary values for all states and outlying areas present in the data file, no adjustments were made.Group 1 Tables – National Totals from Summary Tables for 50 states + DCNote: Tables shown in this grouping summarize data for the 50 states + DC. Summary tables available through the CCD website () provide additional information, including counts by state and counts for jurisdictions beyond the 50 states and DC including Puerto Rico, Bureau of Indian Education, and U.S. Virgin Islands.

Other charter schools may be reported through a different LEA type that contains both charter and non-charter schools.NOTE: Table includes the 50 states and the District of Columbia. Charter status is independent of school type; charter schools are included in the school type totals. For analytical purposes, New York City Public Schools, New York, is treated as a single regular school district.SOURCE: U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Common Core of Data (CCD), "Public Elementary/ Secondary School Universe Survey", 2014–15 to 2017–18, Provisional Version 1a and "Local Education Agency Universe Survey", 2014–15 to 2017–18, Provisional Version 1aTable 1.2: Number of operating public schools and districts, student membership, teachers, and pupil/teacher ratio in the 50 states and DC: School years 2014–15 through 2017–18 Year Number?of operating schools 1 Number?of operating districts State-Level Summary?
