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. School and agency point locations are derived
from reported information about the physical location of schools and agency
administrative offices. The point locations in this data layer represent the
most current CCD collection. For more information about NCES school point data,
see: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Geographic/SchoolLocations.
Collections are available for the
following years:

EDGE performed automated tests to ensure logical consistency and limits of the shapefiles. Standard geographic codes, such as FIPS codes for states, counties, state legislative districts, and congressional districts are used when encoding spatial entities. EDGE performed spatial data tests for logical consistency of the codes during the creation of the shapefiles. Most of the codes for geographic entities except states, counties, Core Based Statistical Areas (CBSAs), Combined Statistical Areas (CSAs), New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs), state legislative districts, and congressional districts were provided to the Census Bureau by the USGS, the agency responsible for maintaining the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). Feature attribute information has been examined but has not been fully tested for consistency.
