TIGER/Line Shapefile, 2013, Series Information File for theCurrent Elementary School Districts State-based Shapefile

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation.

      School Districts are single-purpose administrative units within which local officials provide public educational services for the area's residents.  The
      Census Bureau obtains the boundaries, names, local education agency codes, grade ranges, and school district levels for school districts from State officials
      for the primary purpose of providing the U.S. Department of Education with estimates of the number of children in poverty within each school district.  This
      information serves as the basis for the Department of Education to determine the annual allocation of Title I funding to States and school districts.

     TIGER/Line Shapefiles include separate shapefiles for elementary, secondary and unified school districts.  The school district boundaries are those in effect
     for the 2011-2012 school year.
