You may want to check the ACS education tabulation(ACS-ED) https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Demographic/ACS, a custom tab collaboration between the NCES EDGE program and the Census Bureau (https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/). The ACS-ED provides the standard ACS Profiles tables for unique iterations of school-age children (and households with children). Most of the estimates are at the school district level to address education-oriented audiences, but it's a great resource for anyone interested in the social/economic conditions of school-age children. The ACS-ED Maps tool also provides the data in geographic context. https://nces.ed.gov/programs/maped/ACSMaps/. - d.
