Our NY school district was way OVER-Funded. Spending per student is $24,930/year. The district’s minority enrollment is 30%. Also, 34.2% of students are economically disadvantaged. A good portion of those students are Seneca Indians that can choose from multiple districts to be educated. Middle School proficiency in Math is at 36% and Reading is at 29%. The BEST private school located roughly 30 minutes from our home spends less per student.
Two-thirds of the students could not read or do math at their age level, but they have extra time to attend the Alphabet Fruit Loop crowd with Queer Club. For my two children, I would have taken their $49,800 and spent it way better than our local School Board did.
Homeschooling sounds better every day. Especially in S-Hole states like NY
