State Profile Data

Annually, the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) prepares reports on the state of education in Colorado. CSFP and Augenblick, Palaich & Associates (APA) uses the CDE data to further analyze and report on K-12 public school funding in Colorado creating the Colorado State Profile data. Other data sources: CDE, NEA, NCES, Colorado Legislative Services.

Colorado State Profile Data uses audited data.  Because the data has gone through an auditing process, it lags current (unaudited) data.
