Cross-publisher (iii-b) — FLDOE absent-10%+ count vs EDFacts DG814 (2022-23)

Verdict: PASS — 507 schools matched by NCES id (0 EDFacts rows without a directory match).

PK cell suppressed (1–9)34——0.0

Schools with PK: EDFacts undercount = 0.661 × PK membership -4.72 (r = 0.860); the annual-count gap and October membership use different denominators, so this slope is not a direct estimate of PK chronic-absence prevalence.

EDFacts DG814 is K-12 (+ungraded); FLDOE's absent-10%+ count includes PK, so exact agreement is expected only where October PK membership is zero. Pass rule: within ±1 (EDFacts perturbation) for ≥90% of no-PK schools. For PK schools the gap is reported as a regression on PK membership; schools whose PK cell is suppressed (1–9 students) are in neither group.
