K-12 expenditures for every Georgia public school, school district, and the state as a whole, by spending function, publ
K-12 expenditures for every Georgia public school, school district, and the state as a whole, by spending function, published by the Governor's Office of Student Achievement (GOSA). Each row reports the total dollar amount and the per-FTE (full-time-equivalent student) dollar amount for one of 11 expenditure functions — instruction, pupil services, instructional support, school administration, general administration, maintenance and operations, transportation, media, school food services, debt services, and renovation and capital projects — covering school years 2010-11 through 2023-24. This is the full function-level spending ledger: all expenditures, broken out by function. The revenue side of the same GOSA report lives in the sibling topic k12_revenues (K-12 revenues by funding source, district/state detail); the two topics split the retired combined revenues_and_expenditures topic (one measure family per fact table) and share one bronze source, so they join cleanly on year and district_code. Distinct from the per_pupil_expenditure topic (FESR methodology), which is an included-cost per-pupil spending series whose totals intentionally differ from this full ledger.
Filterable categorical columns (comma-separated values union; multiple columns AND together):
- expenditure_function — one of: debt_services, general_administration, instruction, instructional_support, maintenance_and_operations, media, pupil_services, renovation_and_capital_projects, school_administration, school_food_services, transportation
Detail levels available: districts, schools, states (default: schools)
Year coverage: 2011–2024 (14 years, no gaps)
NULL handling: zero is a real value.
