[quote=Anonymous]Loiederman has a schedule that is currently the same as TPMS, and parents were told that Loiederman is able to maintain that schedule to to "additional funding." However, the numbers don't seem to line up. TPMS per pupil expenditures are $17,054 and Loiederman's are $17,555. (All numbers from publicly available information on Maryland Report Card) Now, this additional $500 per kid undoubtedly adds up, but Loiederman also has a much more expensive set of kids, and a more expensive physical plant to maintain for the performing arts program. Looking at the At A Glance documents, the actual student-to-teacher ratio at both schools is very similar. I wish I didn't feel like I have to go to primary sources on every claim the TPMS administration makes, but this one doesn't make a lot of sense. [/quote]
