How about some historical data on this ratio?
Historical data may not be of much use given how much schools have changed in the last 20-30 years with mainlining, foreign-student integration, increases in poverty, ADA, etc.
IT is supposed to reduce the number of people needed
Heh. IME I've always seen the opposite - computers were supposed to reduce the number of people needed for a task but small business need to hire an IT guy to take care of the system, thereby increasing the payroll.
the others should be flat
Only if you assume that all else stayed the same, and things clearly haven't.

Poverty hasn't increased, it has decreased - we've moved the line and we're providing much more assistance that we don't count. > Heh.

The NYC school district isn't a small biz.
