mcp-education-data

Education Data MCP — US K-12 schools, districts, funding and child poverty.

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1878+ live data sources. This is an independent, unofficial integration — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream provider.

Tools

ToolDescription
education_find_schoolsFind US K-12 PUBLIC SCHOOLS by state, with optional city or name filter. Keyless federal data (NCES Common Core of Data via the Urban Institute). Returns each school's NCES id, name, district, city, enrollment, charter/magnet status, grade range, and free/reduced-price lunch counts. 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_districtsFind US PUBLIC SCHOOL DISTRICTS (local education agencies) by state, with optional name filter. Keyless federal data (NCES Common Core of Data). Returns each district's LEA id, name, county, city, number of schools, enrollment, and teacher counts. Use for "school districts in <state>", "how big is <district>", "how many students does <district> serve". The returned leaid feeds education_district_finance and education_child_poverty.
education_district_financeSchool district FUNDING AND SPENDING — revenue by source (federal / state / local) and expenditure by function, plus computed PER-PUPIL spending. Keyless federal data (NCES CCD school district finance survey, F-33). Use for "how much does <district> spend per student", "school funding by district in <state>", "which districts get the most federal money", "local vs state share of school funding". 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_povertyCHILD 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>". Pass a state to rank districts by poverty rate, or a leaid for one district.

Quick Start

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "education-data": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/education-data/mcp"
    }
  }
}
What this endpoint actually serves

tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/education-data/mcp returns the tools in the table above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx, discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and is the authoritative answer for a given day.

This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth, connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1878+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

No MCP client? Call it over HTTP

curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/education_find_schools \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"state":"TX","city":"Austin"}'

No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/education_find_schools. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.

Standalone (no gateway account)

This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "education-data": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-education-data"]
    }
  }
}

Or run it directly to confirm it starts:

npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-education-data

It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.

Using with ask_pipeworx

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Education Data data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
