Find public schools by level, program and state
Filter the 2024-25 public school records by state, level and program, students per teacher, the share of students eligible for free meals and size. Each result opens the school's record.
How the finder works
- Students per teacher is enrollment over full-time-equivalent teachers in the same year; it counts specialists too, so it is not class size. The average U.S. school has about 15.
- Free-meal share is the share of students eligible for free meals, the usual measure of economic need; about half of U.S. students are eligible.
- Program filters use the federal classification: Title I from CCD 2021-22, charter and online from the 2024-25 directory.
