Well then, the solution is obviously to throw more money at the problem!
In the US, you spend $20K per student.
I think part of the solution in the US is to tear down the whole system, go local and market-based.
- krschultz 16y agoWhere did you pull that number? I went to high school in the state with the absolute highest spending per student (New Jersey) in one of the school districts that spent so much money per student we lost all state funding because the local taxes were paying so much, and we only were spending $8-9k per student.
- cheez 16y agoI believe New York now admits to spending about $17K, which is not $20K (which I heard on TV last night). On average, it seems that it was around $10K 5 years ago. This would be a respectable amount IF the results, on average, were good. But they are not.
