School & District ID Lookup

Find the School ID or District ID (LEA ID) you need for a widget, shortcode, or API call. Free to use — no account required.

Searches by name. Add a state to narrow down common names — only the top 20 matches are returned.
Using these IDs
  • School ID — the 12-character NCES school ID (e.g. 063456002637). Use it for data-school-id on a widget embed, school-id="..." in the WordPress shortcode, or schoolid in the SchoolDigger API.
  • District ID (LEA ID) — the NCES local education agency ID (e.g. 0634560). Use it for data-district-id, district-id="..." in the shortcode, or districtID in the API.
  • Building a widget? The widget builder has the same search built in, and the WordPress page generates a ready-to-paste shortcode.
