The Los Angeles Unified School District spends $18,788 per student. Its goal is to up that spending to $20,000. The mammoth LA school district is 7th in urban spending and has around half a million students. And the costs only went up after a United Teachers strike extracted a 6 percent raise.

Holy crap. When I was in school, my high school cost ~$10M per year. Course, it's up to $20M a year now, but how does a public school across all grades cost the same as a private college prep school? That just shows massive bloat and I'm sure they could cut a lot of $$ somewhere!

Shut of all their GD money. Citizens, challenge the property taxes that go to support CLOSED schools.
