The 2010 Census will impact education.
It will:
Shape school budgets and facilities. Census data affect distribution of Title I and special education funding and college loan programs and help determine where to build schools and child care centers. An incomplete count could mean your community does not receive its fair share of funding.
Define education's voice in government. Education organizations depend on representatives to advocate on their behalf at all levels of government. Census data will ensure you are accurately represented.
CENSUS QUESTIONNAIRES, WHICH WILL BE MAILED IN MARCH 2010, WILL TAKE ONLY A FEW MINUTES TO COMPLETE.
