The geographic components of combined New England City and Town Areas (NECTAs) are individual metropolitan and micropolitan NECTAs in various combinations.

If the agency is not in any type of metropolitan/micropolitan statistical area, the field is zero filled. For all states but those in New England, the assignment was made using a file of FIPS county codes matched to core based statistical area (CBSA) codes. For the New England states, the assignment was made using the NECTA codes of the schools within the corresponding agency. The metropolitan area definitions used were those issued by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget as of June 2003.

BOUND04 0284 0284 1 AN The boundary change indicator is a classification of changes in an education agency’s boundaries since the last report to NCES. The options are as follows: 1 = No significant boundary change for this agency since the last report. Currently in operation. 2 = Education agency has closed with no effect on another agency’s boundaries. 3 = This is a new education agency formed with no effect on another agency’s boundaries. 4 = Agency was in existence, but not reported in previous year’s CCD agency universe survey, and is now being added. 5 = Agency has undergone a significant change in geographic boundaries or instructional responsibility. 6 = Agency is temporarily closed and may reopen within 3 years. 7 = Agency is scheduled to be operational within 2 years.
