It does when you have to support parasitical political and union bosses.

We need to have a revolution to remove this graft and political patronage.

Just float another bond, the taxpayers are good for it.

The article says it is actually $2.5 million “loss of state funding”. The cost of educating those 582 students is north of $5.8 million based on a $10,000 per student cost ,which is a low ball number on the cost. So it would cost the $10,000 to earn that $4,350 which is only logical in government finance.

“The newest numbers that we have received and broken down can be measured to around $4,350 per student enrolled in the public school system,” she said.

$10,000 per kid seems to be the going rate. Baltimore spends $18,000 per kid and gets the worst results in the nation.

Lots of districts do phenomenal jobs for $8,000 per kid or less.

A clear example of why the current public school education model is becoming untenable.
