[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no problem with "fully finding schools", but I have not heard one person that talks about this actually specify what it means. Is there actually a number in terms of per student spending that would be considered fulling funding the schools? School funding is important, but it is not a Panacea. DC public schools spend more than $30,000 per year for each student, but the the educational outcomes are horrible. [/quote] Great question. PTAC rolls out this campaign every year. So what is the number? And how will results be measured? What accountability will be in place this time? Because PTAC doesn't hold ACPS accountable for anything. They never have. They provide coverage. They just sign their names to op-eds about how great ACPS is and scream at people who say otherwise. If it's so great...why does it need more money thrown at it? [/quote]
