ATT F - LEA and School Locale Codes 2024-25 - Entity Priority Points.xlsx

This document is a reference file containing Local Education Agency (LEA) and school locale codes for Oregon's 2024-25 academic year, maintained by the Oregon Department of Education. The file categorizes all Oregon school districts, educational service districts (ESDs), and charter schools by their NCES (National Center for Education Statistics) locale classifications. It includes 17 ESDs and approximately 300 school districts and charter schools, each assigned an entity ID, district name, entity type (district or charter), and corresponding locale code. The locale codes range from 11 (City - Large) to 43 (Rural - Remote), representing geographic and population density classifications that determine eligibility and priority point allocations for state and local grant programs. This spreadsheet serves as the authoritative reference for determining entity priority points related to the Pathways to Multilingualism Grant and other Oregon education funding opportunities.

The file contains no pricing information, contract terms, or financial requirements. Rather, it functions as a foundational classification tool used to establish entity eligibility and scoring criteria for educational grants and initiatives. The locale classification system allows the state to target resources to specific geographic and demographic contexts, with rural and remote areas typically receiving enhanced consideration for competitive grants. The data reflects the comprehensive inventory of all Oregon public education entities eligible to participate in state-administered grant programs, making it essential documentation for administering the Pathways to Multilingualism Grant and ensuring equitable distribution of funding across diverse educational environments throughout the state.
