I'm glad to hear you find it useful! Thanks for the question too, as I hadn't included a reference to the source data here. I just updated the article to include a reference to the source data and a footnote with the details. See below for those details.
U.S. Department of Education, Nation Center for Education Statistics (NCES), Common Core of Data (CCD), Local Education Agency (School District) Universe Survey, 1992-93 through 2024-25. Data accessed via NCES ELSi Table Generator (Table ID: 656391), located at: https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/elsi/. Note: Non-teacher staff values are derived as total staff minus teachers.
I love this! I'm an Oregon teacher. But I'm not seeing where the data is coming from. Do you link to the spreadsheets somewhere?
If you open the Table Generator via that link and then enter the table ID I listed, it will let you download the same dataset in spreadsheet form.

I appreciate this. I'm going to share it with my colleagues. I sent you a DM. I'm a teacher and would love to talk to you
