High demand exists for data to analyze the equitable distribution of school funding within and across school districts. In response to this growing demand, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) developed a new collection of finance data at the school level--the School-Level Finance Survey (SLFS). The SLFS collects at the school level many of the same expenditure variables currently being collected at the school district level on the School District Finance Survey (F-33). The pilot SLFS, collected for fiscal year (FY) 14 (school year 2013--14) and FY 15 (school year 2014--15), was designed to evaluate whether the survey is a viable, efficient, and cost-effective method to gather comparable school-level finance data. This report is a follow-up evaluation of the pilot SLFS, focusing on the FY 15 survey collection.
