# Release Notes — v1.0.0

## US SLED Contact Directory (Education layer)
First release. A public-record contact directory of every US public school
district / local education agency, grouped by state.

### Included
- **19,453 organizations** across **all 50 states + DC** (one HTTP 200 source
  request per jurisdiction).
- Real fields per record: organization name, type, **phone** (100% coverage),
  street/city/ZIP/county, enrollment, school count, NCES `leaid`.
- Full provenance: source URL, HTTP status, sha256, and timestamp per jurisdiction;
  whole-dataset sha256; retained raw responses for two sample states.
- Outputs: whole-file CSV + JSON, per-state files, a self-contained browsable site.
- Verification: 17/17 deterministic checks, including a no-fabrication assertion.

### Deliberately deferred (disclosed seams)
- `contactName`, `contactTitle`, `email`, `domain` — not published by the source;
  left empty, never invented.
- State / local government and higher-ed layers of SLED (planned v2 via IPEDS,
  Census Census-of-Governments, SAM.gov).
