[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, funding is more than that. It's $10K without the facilities fee, which adds a few K. Can't remember the exact figures, but there's info on this on the PCSB website.[/quote]
There are all sorts of add-on expenses -- special ed, ESL, facilities fees, summer school and more, there are plenty ways to goose the per pupil up to ~$15K.[/quote]
Wow. you seriously don't know what you're talking about! Special Ed. NEVER adds money to the budget, nor does ESL. You're dreaming....[/quote]
Dude, a little quick out of the gate, why so harsh?

The DC government funds operating costs of DCPS and public charter school on the
same per student basis each year. Formula funding does not include tuition for nonpublic
special education students, special education transportation, or other “state-level”
costs.

Average per pupil local funding for general education and overhead
(excludes funding for special education and ESL instruction):
** FY 2008 $9,036 per pupil

Average per pupil additional local funding for ESL services, FY 2007:
** FY 2008 $3,329 per ESL pupil

Average per pupil additional local funding for special education services:
** FY 2008 $10,917 per special education pupil
