That act charged the U.S. Census Bureau to produce updated estimates of poor school-age children every two years for the nation's more than 3,000 counties and 14,000 school districts. The act also charged the panel with determining the appropriateness and reliability of the Bureau's estimates for use in the allocation of more than $7 billion of Title I funds each year for educationally disadvantaged children. The panel's charge was both a major one and one with immovable deadlines. The panel had to evaluate the Census Bureau's work on a very tight schedule in order to meet legal requirements for allocation of Title I funds. As it turned out, the panel produced three interim reports: the first one evaluated county-level estimates of poor school-age children in 1993, the second one assessed a revised set of 1993 county estimates; and the third one covered both county- and school district-level estimates of poor school-age children in 1995. This volume combines and updates these three reports into a single reference volume. 410 0$aCompass series (Washington, D.C.) 606 $aPoor children$zUnited States$xStatistical methods 606 $aChildren$zUnited States$xEconomic conditions$xStatistical methods 606 $aPoverty$zUnited States$xStatistical methods 606 $aPoor children$xEducation$zUnited States$xFinance$xStatistical methods 606 $aFederal aid to education$zUnited States$xStatistical methods 615 0$aPoor children$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aChildren$xEconomic conditions$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aPoverty$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aPoor children$xEducation$xFinance$xStatistical methods. 615 0$aFederal aid to education$xStatistical methods. 701 $aCitro$b Constance F$g(Constance Forbes),$f1942-$01804879 701 $aKalton$b Graham$0124277 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971034203321 996 $aSmall-area estimates of school-age children in poverty$94358235 997 $aUNINA
