Notified participants of WikiProject Education Unfortunately the existing formatter URL for this property seems to be for public schools only. A working formatter URL for private schools looks like https://nces.ed.gov/globallocator/sch_info_popup.asp?Type=Private&ID=00346865, but putting that school ID into the existing formatter URL gives you https://nces.ed.gov/ccd/schoolsearch/school_detail.asp?ID=00346865, which returns a 500 Error. So we could find some better formatter URL that works for all schools, or scope this property to public schools only (and maybe make a new property), or something else. Thoughts?

I genuinely didn't realize the NCES collected data on private schools. I'm inclined to use a new property, because the data seems to be housed in two different databases on the NCES side (Private School Universe Survey vs. Common Core of Data). It seems that the private school identifiers are shorter than the public school ones, so it shouldn't be too hard to migrate existing uses, such as Covington Catholic High School (Q2493240), by bot.
