Abstract: This is the FSM Indicators Report for the school year 2019-20, which first started in the FSM known as the JEMCO Indicators Report. The data is almost entirely from a single integrated source: The Federated States of Micronesia Education Management Information System (FedEMIS), a byproduct of the recent data improvement initiative.

In this publication, we include an agreed upon selection of 25 indicators. In general, it includes only the data and analysis. Those interested in details about where our data comes from, how it is cleaned up and validated, and how the figures we publish are computed (methodology) are referred to the larger Education Statistics Digest. The publication is organized into the usual six simple themes each presenting indicators shown for the nation and by state.

While various indicators have improved, the FSM continues its slight decline in enrollments. Access to primary education is generally better than both ECE and secondary. The situation in all four states is similar for most indicators and most noticeable differences are discussed throughout the themes.
