Data
Every table is unit-by-year: one row per reporting unit (lea_id, plus school_id in school-level tables), school year, and category (revenue code, expenditure function, fund, etc.). Identifiers are consistent across tables, so they join cleanly.
Conventions used throughout:
lea_id— Missouri’s 6-digit county-district code, zero-padded, as a string (e.g.,"001090"). Stable across years.school_id— 4-digit school codes that are unique within, but not across, districts (e.g.,"1050") and stable across years.school_year— the spring calendar year of the school year:2027means the 2026–27 school year (FY27).- Dollar values are as reported by districts; negative amounts (shown in parentheses in the original reports) are negative numbers here.
Documentation and Resources:
- Data dictionary (CSV)
- Sample data (ZIP) — all tables filtered to a single district (randomly chosen each release), all years, as CSVs, so the cross-table joins can be seen end to end.
- Financial Accounting Handbook — descriptions of what types of revenues/expenditures are categorized into function/object/fund codes. Because code definitions evolve, older editions of the handbook will be added over time so researchers can check how a code was defined in the year a filing was made (current editions are on DESE’s site). In general, new codes subdivide existing codes, so longitudinal analysis is still possible but the coarseness of the data increases the further back you go.
Full files are available on request — see Request Data.
Working with the files
Releases are distributed as parquet files rather than CSVs. Parquet files store column types alongside the data, so zero-padded identifiers like lea_id = "001090" are not converted to numbers when a file is opened (common problem with CSVs). The files are also roughly a sixth of the size of a CSV and much faster to read. Parquet is an open Apache standard supported in every major analysis language:
- R —
arrow::read_parquet("revenue_function_by_fund.parquet")(install the arrow package) - Python —
pandas.read_parquet("revenue_function_by_fund.parquet")(uses pyarrow) - Stata — install the community-contributed pq module (
ssc install pq), then read files with itspq usecommand (seehelp pq).
Other formats (CSV, Stata .dta) are available on request; .
ASBR tables
Missing versus zero. A code appears in a table only in years when its line was included on that LEA’s report, so an absent row means the code was not used (or did not yet exist) that year. Within a row, NA means the report left the cell blank, while 0 means the ASBR reported $0.
Revenues by source and fund
Each LEA’s revenues by DESE revenue code and by fund (General/Incidental, Special Revenue/Teachers, Debt Service, and Capital Projects). Revenue codes distinguish local property taxes, county sources, state aid, and federal programs, so this table supports questions about where LEA funding comes from and how the funding mix varies across LEAs or over time.

Expenditures by function and fund
Expenditures by function code and fund. Function codes describe the purpose of spending (e.g., instruction, support services, food service, facilities, debt service, and others) allowing analyses of how LEAs allocate resources among priorities.

Per Pupil Building Level Expenditures
Building-level and district-level expenditures per pupil for every school building, from the 2018-19 school year on, on both the September membership basis used for ESSA per-pupil reporting and the ADA basis used for High Needs Fund payments, plus the per-building line-item detail behind those figures.
These tables come from a different DESE report than the ASBR tables above and cover a shorter period, so they carry their own caveats. Join them to each other on lea_id and building_code; building codes are unique within an LEA but not statewide.
Per-pupil expenditures by building
One row per school building per year: current operation expenditures attributed to the building, that building’s share of district-level expenditures, its Average Daily Attendance and September membership, and the resulting per-pupil amounts - each split into federal and state/local dollars. This is the headline building-level table, and the starting point for comparing spending across schools within or between districts. Buildings reported with an ADA or membership at or near zero (a handful of hospital, detention, and early-childhood sites) produce extreme per-pupil rates; the enrollment columns are included so those rows can be identified and filtered.

Building expenditure worksheet lines
The full worksheet behind the building per-pupil calculation: lines 1-26 of DESE’s building detail report for every building and year, covering included expenditures and each category of deduction (student activities, food service sales, tuition received, transportation fees, capital outlay). Use it to see exactly which dollars were added or subtracted before the per-pupil figures were computed, or to analyze a single deduction category across LEAs.
