 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:NCES School ID. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is designed to allow quick standardized inline references citing the National Center for Education Statistics Common Core of Data (CCD) website to be created for articles containing statistics about public (government funded) schools in the United States. The CCD website contains enrollment numbers, faculty head-counts and other statistics for most schools in the US. It is envisioned that this data will be particularly suited for use in an {{Infobox school}}.
In its most common usage, this will produce text of the School ID as both a direct hyperlink to the NCES webpage for the school and an inline reference.
