STATE AGENCIES
Supporting states with school finance transparency and compliance.
In addition to ESSA regulations, the COVID emergency and resulting stimulus packages have highlighted the need for sustainable financial transparency.
Effortless reporting and compliance
Ensure compliance with ESSA school-level spending regulatory requirements and make public reporting of ESSER stimulus dollars quick and easy for local, state and federal reporting.
Finance data transparency
Increase public trust by sharing school and district budgets and spending data that are accessible and simple to understand for parents, community members, and legislators.
Funding formula modeling
Build and run multiple resource allocation scenarios based on projected enrollments and student demographics to equitably develop, evaluate, and share your state funding formula.
TRANSPARENCY MEANS ACCESS AND UNDERSTANDING
Education stakeholders at every level—legislators, educators, tax payers, and more—should be able to quickly and easily access and understand school funding and spending data.
What fund sources or grants make up this school or district budget?
In order to better understand school-level budgets and spending, it's important to unpack the make-up of revenue. Some grant funds are targeted state or federal grants intended to address supplemental needs of special populations like Special Education students and English language learners. It's critical to:
- Make sure these funds are reaching the intended students
- Understand which dollars have tight spending restrictions
- See where ESSER dollars fit relative to the rest of the budget

How much of ESSER dollars have been spent, budgeted, or remain for future use?
ESSER dollars are rare in that LEAs will receive the full amount in a lump sum, but have 3-4 years to budget and spend them. This is an opportunity for LEAs to get creative, but also a challenge to spend at the right place.
How does my school's funding compare to other schools?
Comparing funding and spending across schools and districts helps parents understand the whole picture about how local school systems allocate resources.
