Section 4
Education

This section presents data concerning the enrollment, personnel, level, extent, and finances of formal education in the United States. The chief sources of these data are the decennial Census of Population and the Current Population Survey, both conducted by the Bureau of the Census (see text, p. 1), and a number of annual, biennial, and other periodic surveys conducted by the Office of Education. The Census of Population has included data on school enrollment since the Census of 1840 and on educational attainment since the Census of 1940. The Current Population Survey has reported on school enrollment annually beginning in 1945 and on educational attainment and illiteracy periodically beginning in 1947. The surveys of the Office of Education are summarized in the Digest of Educational Statistics, an annual publication issued for the first time in 1962. The Digest includes data on pupils, staff, finances, and organization at elementary, secondary, and college levels.

Other regular sources of education data include special studies of the Office of Education, publications of the National Education Association, and annual or biennial reports of education agencies in individual States. The Office of Education's reports, Federal Funds for Education, contain detailed data on Federal expenditures for education. Administrative statistics on programs concerned with the distribution of Federal funds are issued by the agencies responsible. The quinquennial Census of Governments provides data on school district finances. Reports published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics contain data relating employment experience to educational attainment. Special studies by the National Science Foundation present statistics on scientists and technicians. Similar studies by the National Institutes of Health cover medical fields. Data on vocational training are available in Vocational and Technical Education, issued annually by the Office of Education.

Types of data. The statistics in this section are of two general types. One type, exemplified by data from the Bureau of the Census, is based on direct questioning of individuals to obtain information about their own and their families' education. Tabulations of this type of data relate to school enrollment and level of education attained, classified by age, sex, and other characteristics of the population.

The second type, exemplified by data from the Office of Education and the National Education Association, is based on reports obtained from administrators of educational institutions and of local and State agencies having jurisdiction over education. This type of data relates to school enrollment, attendance, staff, and finances for the United States, individual States, and local areas, according to institutional characteristics.

State laws. Although all States except Mississippi and South Carolina have requirements that children attend school, State laws vary as to the ages and circumstances of compulsory attendance. In the majority of States, the laws require that formal schooling begin by age 7 and continue to age 16.
