COLUMBIA – The South Carolina Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office (RFA) has released an update to the Education Funding Dashboard on its website (https://rfa.sc.gov/education-funding-dashboard) that now allows users to conduct longitudinal analysis on revenues, expenditures, academic achievement, and other data by school district.

The Education Funding Dashboard summarizes financial and other data for K-12 education to inform the public and provide transparency on school district finances in South Carolina. The dashboard includes charts and graphs that allow users to analyze and compare data by district. The data are also available for users to download. The update includes two additional years, for a total of three years of financial and other data on a statewide and district level from FY 2020-21 to FY 2022-23. The update also includes statewide and district level data for Aid to Classrooms funding for the two fiscal years, FY 2022-23 and FY 2023-24, since the funding model’s inception.

All financial data used in the dashboard are provided by the local school districts to the SC Department of Education. Questions about the financial data should be directed to the individual school district.
