The Every Students Succeeds Act contains a short but significant provision requiring LEAs to report not only district-level expenditure data but also, for the first time, school-level expenditure data. This reporting will begin with FY19 data and will be reported on the Illinois Report Card. LEAs are required to report actual personnel and non-personnel expenditures of both site-specific and district centralized expenditures. Expenditures will be shown at the site level and must be disaggregated by source of funds (federal vs. state/local).
