Data File: Longitudinal School District Fiscal-Nonfiscal File, Fiscal Years 1990 to 2000 [23 November 2004]
http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2005863
Description:
This documentation describes the creation of The NCES Longitudinal School District Fiscal-Nonfiscal (FNF) Database. The new database contains fiscal and nonfiscal district data for each year from 198990 to 19992000, for the universe of regular public elementary and secondary school districts. The database is available in two forms. The primary longitudinal Fiscal-Nonfiscal (FNF) file in the database contains a separate record for each regular school district that was open some years in the 1990s. The other longitudinal file, the Unified Fiscal-Nonfiscal file (UFNF), combines data from separate elementary districts with the secondary districts they feed, so that each record contains data for a Unified K12 pseudo-district.(Elementarydistricts typically covered the grades K-8, while secondarydistricts typically covered the grades 9-12.) The database is designed for research use in testing hypotheses about longitudinal trends in school districts over this period. To facilitate analysis, all missing data have been replaced by statistical imputations, and clearly erroneous responses have been edited and replaced by plausible values.
