Here is a good breakdown of funding in CA:

So federal is...7%?

The problem is that federal grants often go through the state, so some percentage of "state" may source from the feds.

Of course it's all academic in a way, because money is fungible.

The table implies funding origins via taxes (local vs. state taxes, for example). I don't think any ED money is going to CA first before going to the districts. CA is also a special case where more funding is state level (due to Prop 13).
