[quote=Anonymous]Ha! How do you think public school funding works? It isn't that they divide a pot of money equally amongst all students. If your kid is "regular" as in a well behaved, on or above grade level kid with no needs, any school district is not spending much on your kid. All school distorts are spending g a ton of money on kids with high needs- special education students (some kids need up to 75,000 per year spent for each student for them to make progress-residential school, one to one aide, bussing, nursing services, speech therapy, etc.); ESL students; students with behavior problems, etc. This is why some schools like Catholic schools can educate students for less than public schools- they don't take any high needs kids.
