Eligible students ≈ 144K is a modelled estimate built from NCES grade-band averages (CCD SY2022-23) — not a counted figure. Title I funding is the FY2023 state allocation, rounded. School and district counts are drawn from different reported years, as shown above. CTE funding figures are approximate planning numbers from the state's Perkins V plan and CTE budget — useful for scale, not audited allocations.
