K-12 Public School Finance |
Every year the United States spends over $400 billion on its public elementary and secondary schools. K-12 education represents the biggest item in state and local budgets. Yet those financial resources are not managed in ways that encourage and reinforce efforts to improve educational outcomes. As a result, the massive American investment in its schools is not yielding the high level of student achievement that it should.
Redesigning funding policies is an essential step in the process of transforming schools into high performance organizations.
