Keyless federal data (NCES Common Core of Data via the Urban Institute).

Use for "public schools in <city/state>", "how many students at <school>", "charter schools in <state>", "which schools have the highest enrollment". For school DISTRICTS use education_find_districts; for COLLEGES use the college-scorecard pack instead — this covers K-12 only.education_find_districts — Find US PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS (local education agencies) by state, with optional name filter.

Keyless federal data (NCES CCD school district finance survey, F-33).

Pass a state to rank districts, or a leaid (from education_find_districts) for one district. Note the finance survey lags the directory data by 1-2 years.education_child_poverty — CHILD POVERTY by school district — Census SAIPE estimates of the number and percentage of school-age children (5-17) in poverty, which drive federal Title I funding. Keyless. Use for "child poverty rate in <district>", "poorest school districts in <state>", "how many students in poverty in <district>".
