It never ceases to amaze me how school columnists focus on inputs - money - while not even considering outputs - learning.

Sure, it's nice to have more money and all, but I don't think that's what makes kids learn. A lot of miserable schools have absurdly high budgets.

Re your post #8 - Thanks for your comments here, daviddennis. I think these newspapers are slowly starting to focus on the learning component of Gov. Bush's plan, and measuring this aspect is what they are having the most trouble rejecting. :)
