†Not applicable.

¹Excludes federal support for medical education benefits under Medicare in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Benefits are excluded because data before fiscal year (FY) 1990 are not available. This program has existed since Medicare began but was not available as a separate budget item until FY 1990. Excluded amounts are estimated as follows: $4,440,000,000 in FY 1990, $8,020,000,000 in FY 2000, $9,080,000,000 in FY 2010, $9,200,000,000 in FY 2011, $9,800,000,000 in FY 2012, $10,000,000,000 in FY 2013, $11,530,000,000 in FY 2014, $11,800,000,000 in FY 2015, $12,300,000,000 in FY 2016, $13,000,000,000 in FY 2017, and $13,800,000,000 in FY 2018.

Amounts after FY 2002 reflect balances that are spending out from prior-year appropriations.

⁷Under the Hurricane Education Recovery Act, short-term funds were provided in 2010 to assist schools and students displaced by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Similar funds were provided in 2018 to assist schools and school districts in meeting the education needs of students affected by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria and the 2017 California wildfires.

⁸Starting with FY 1994, funds for the Special Milk Program are included in child nutrition programs.

⁹Authorized under the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (Public Law 107-171), the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program carries out preschool and school feeding programs in foreign countries.

¹²The Department of Defense Domestic Dependent Elementary and Secondary Schools (DDESS) program supports students in military communities in the United States, Guam, and Puerto Rico.

¹³Established in 1979, with funds first appropriated in FY 1980.

¹⁴Formerly in the Office of Economic Opportunity. In FY 1972, program funds were transferred to the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (later the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services). Today, the program is housed within the Administration for Children and Families within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

¹⁵Created by the Family Support Act of 1988 (Public Law 100-485) to provide funds for the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills Training program. In 1997, AFDC was incorporated into the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program.

¹⁶Transferred from the U.S. Department of Transportation to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in March 2003.

¹⁷Data for 2013 through 2018 are estimated.

¹⁸Provides funding for supplemental programs for eligible American Indian students in public schools.

¹⁹Beginning in 2012, funding for advanced occupational education programs and vocational training education is included in inmate programs.

²⁰Finances the cost of education courses for inmates in federal prisons.

²¹Formerly in the Office of Economic Opportunity. Transferred to the U.S. Department of Labor in FYs 1971 and 1972.

²²Some of the work and training programs were in the Office of Economic Opportunity and were transferred to the U.S. Department of Labor in FYs 1971 and 1972. From FY 1994 through FY 2001, included the School-to-Work Opportunities program, which was administered jointly by the U.S. Departments of Education and Labor.

²³Includes funding for some programs that may not be categorized as elementary/secondary education, such as various worker education programs.

²⁷This program is in the Readjustment Benefits program, Chapter 31, and covers the costs of subsistence, tuition, books, supplies, and equipment for disabled veterans requiring vocational rehabilitation.

²⁸This program is in the Readjustment Benefits program, Chapter 35, and provides benefits to children and spouses of veterans.

²⁹Appropriations began for this program in 1995 and ended in 2001.

³⁰Funding for education for the Appalachian Regional Commission is sorted by the type of grantee (e.g., local education agency, institution of higher education) as opposed to how the funding is actually used.

³¹"Elementary/secondary" obligations for FYs 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018 include those items that impact elementary and secondary (K–12) students and are standards based. "Other education" obligations include all other arts education items not meeting the terms of "elementary/secondary."

³²The Office of Economic Opportunity was dissolved in 1981.

³³Most of these programs were transferred to the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, Office of Education, in FY 1972.

³⁴Transferred to the ACTION Agency in FY 1972.

³⁵The Social Security Administration was formerly part of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, which became the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in 1980. In 1994, the Social Security Administration became an independent agency.

³⁶Benefits typically terminate at age 18 unless a child is still a full-time elementary or secondary student. In that case, benefits continue until the child graduates or until 2 months after reaching age 19, whichever comes first. Disabled children are also eligible to receive benefits after age 18.

³⁷Under the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (commonly referred to as the Direct Loan Program), the federal government uses Treasury funds to provide loan capital directly to schools, which then disburse loan funds to students.

³⁸The U.S. Department of Education periodically reestimates the subsidy costs of the Direct Loan Program and Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program. In 2017, the majority of the net upward reestimates of $28.4 billion for the Direct Loan Program and $10.79 billion for the FFEL program reflect changes in collection and technical assumptions. In addition, the Direct Loan Program reestimate reflects an increase in loan discharges for student borrowers harmed by institutional misconduct, and the FFEL Program reflects reestimates for the Ensuring Continued Access to Student Loans Act (ECASLA) of 2008.

³⁹The Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program eliminated the authorization to originate new FFEL loans after June 30, 2010; all new loans are originated through the Direct Loan Program. The FFEL Program made loan capital available to students and their families through private lenders. State and private nonprofit guaranty agencies administer the federal guarantee protecting FFEL lenders against losses related to borrower default. These agencies also collect on defaulted loans and provide other services to lenders.

⁴⁰Transferred from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to the U.S. Department of Education when it was established in 1980.

⁴¹Transferred from the National Science Foundation to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration within the U.S. Department of Commerce in October 1970.
