[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just find it shocking that $55 million pays for one additional teacher or aide in every elementary classroom within FCPS, yet they can't seem to figure out how to reduce the size of our school's classroom with 33 children in it and no aide.[/quote] Some schools would need more thanone teacher as many grades have over 30 kids per class. It is all about resources, the ability to tax and the % of public school children compared to the adult taxpating population. Arlington can spend more per student becasue only ~10% of thier population is in school, where as over 15% of Fairfax's is. Plus, since Arlington is a City by State terms, they can tax more and varied things than Fairfax, a County can. [/quote]
