SPS Budget and Purple Books
Seattle Public Schools' own budget documents — adopted budgets, budget books, and the supporting “purple books” — going back to 2002. Statewide machine-readable financial data lives in the SAFS Financial Databases section, and the scanned state fiscal-report PDFs in Fiscal Reports (OSPI PDFs).
