So how much is spent per student now?
According to online data, the district spends about $9807 per student. The boo-hoo’ed $2 million funding loss on 582 students is $3436 apiece. The school district is UP almost $6400 per home-schooled student. They should be giving that back through property tax reduction.
So why are they crying? Evidently, the school district spends LESS than $3436 on each normal child. Far, far more is likely spent per pupil on “special needs” children than “regular” students. The balance goes for bureaucrats and other overhead.
