The median estimated poverty rate of children ages 5 to 17 in U.S. school districts in 2023 was 13.4%, according to data released today by the U.S. Census Bureau. The new data come from the 2023 Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates [ [link removed] ] (SAIPE), which provide the only single-year income and poverty statistics for the nation’s 3,143 counties and 13,137 school districts.
SAIPE statistics are used to allocate funding under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. School districts receive Title I funds based on their number and percentage of children from low-income families. The U.S. Department of Education plans to use the 2023 estimates to calculate and provide fiscal year 2026 funding to states and school districts in the 2025-2026 school year for Title I and several other federal education programs.
