It's your FROM statement; you're not joining counties, districts, schools
and histories in any way, so you're getting a cartesian product set.
You need some join qualifiers along the likes of
vv1_Counties INNER JOIN vv1_districts on vv1_districts.countyID =
vv1_Counties.countyID (or whatever field you're using to link those two).

Subject: Query boggle
Hey guys and gals,
This is probably something I'm just not seeing clearly but the below
query is supposed to bring my back a count of records grouped by sex.
I've been staring at this query so long I'm not seeing anything. It finds
the right records. The data I have has a male and a female record and both
are found by this query. Yet when I output TotalPerGender I get 808233984
Much obliged.
<CFQUERY DATASOURCE="#dbname#" NAME="qGetSectionTwo">
SELECT
COUNT(ChildIdentity.ChildID) AS TotalPerGender,
ChildIdentity.ChildGender AS Gender
FROM
vvl_Counties ,
vvl_districts,
vvl_schools,
ChildSchoolHistory CSH,
ChildIdentity INNER JOIN ChildResidence ON ChildIdentity.ChildID =
ChildResidence.ChildID
WHERE
ChildIdentity.ChildID = CSH.ChildID
AND Year(CSH.SchoolYearStartDate) BETWEEN #FORM.SchoolYear#
AND CSH.schooltitle1 = 1<!--- Not sure what value --->
AND CSH.LastAttendDate IS NULL
AND ChildResidence.ResidenceCounty = '#FORM.counties#'
GROUP BY ChildIdentity.ChildGender
ORDER BY ChildIdentity.ChildGender
</CFQUERY>
