Expenditures represent money that is spent by schools and districts. This data is supplied as part of the Annual Financial Report that districts and charters are required to report to the state. These detailed financial data sets record which funds are spent, in which schools or central office departments, for what purposes, and on which items.
*District Peer Groups are defined by the Arizona Auditor General’s Office. You can read more about them here. School Peer Groups contain all of the schools in the district. Charter schools are grouped together as their own Peer Group.
