Book excerpt: Legislators, policymakers, and educators rely on empirical evidence from research to make financial decisions regarding education funding. The purpose of this study was to examine the expenditures of the school districts in the Commonwealth of Virginia for the period of 2007 to 2017 and to determine what effect the level of expenditures had, if any, on student achievement at the state, region, and district level. The researcher found a negative correlation trend between per pupil expenditure and average Standards of Learning pass rate for students in Virginia, for students in the 19 school districts of Region VII in Virginia, and also for the students in a small rural district in Virginia. The researcher concluded that per pupil expenditure alone was not an accurate predictor of student achievement and that the socioeconomic status or poverty level of the student was a more reliable predictor of performance on SOL pass rate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do schools that have been successful at reducing test score gaps between white students and students of color allocate resources differently than unsuccessful schools? This paper aims to answer that question, as there is little work at the school level correlating education expenditures to student outcomes. This analysis benefits from three features of expenditure data available in one New York State school district. The first is that these data are available at the school level, not the district level as is often the case. Second, not only overall levels of spending per pupil are available (i.e., total spending per pupil and total instructional spending per pupil), but also functional areas of spending disaggregated to such line items as professional development, classroom paraprofessionals, and principal compensation. Third, the spending data allow us to analyze expenditures on these line items not only for all students but also for two types of students: full-time special education and general education. Up to this point, the literature linking financial resources to student outcomes does not strongly support a relationship between school inputs and outputs. However, not much of that work has benefited from the same disaggregated, school-level spending data for different types of students. It is hoped that this analysis - combined with lessons from previously completed case studies of three successful schools - will contribute some insight into the mechanisms involved in reducing test score gaps in middle and elementary schools. In the end analysis, we find that successful schools, despite instructional level and despite type of student, spend significantly more (statistically) on human resources than on other sorts of resources such as textbooks, library books, or instructional supplies, computer, and equipment. This overarching lesson reflects that taken from the original case studies: our analysis suggests successful schools emphasize human resources, resulting in better teacher and administrator attitudes, lower turnover, and teachers who are more satisfied with their school's leadership, which in turn lead to better educated students and environments that allow for test score gaps to be eliminated. Further, we find that disaggregated data - such as those provided for this study - are necessary as statistically-significant measures of activities taking place inside schools.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of school expenditures on student performance has been a subject of much study and controversy. This paper provides additional empirical evidence about the effects of various categories of school spending on student performance. An educational production function is estimated using achievement test scores to proxy school output, with socio-economic characteristics and expenditures in various categories as inputs. The data are school district level expenditures from Oklahoma. Unlike most past research, a correction is made for heteroskedasticity created by differences in school district size. The correction for heteroskedasticity leads to statistical tests with greater power. Test scores were positively related to expenditures on instruction and instructional support, and are negatively related to expenditures on student support, such as counseling and school administration. The negative effect of counseling and administration could be due to counselors taking up classroom time or administrators using classroom time with announcements or assemblies. Alternatively, the causality could go the other way. It could be that schools with problems hire more administrators and counselors. The socioeconomic variables included may not fully capture the problems that a school faces. The results do show that spending is useful when targeted toward instruction. The effect, although statistically significant, is not large. Thus, the research finds that money can matter if it is spent on instruction.

This book was released on 2015-11-09 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive study of the performance of the public school system in the state of Ohio from the years 2005-2012. Over 23,000 pieces of data were analyzed to secure the findings. This book describes a correlational study of the relationships between per-pupil expenditures and student performance as well as the relationship between student performance and the ability of high school graduates to obtain employment. U.S. high schools continue to perform behind other nations in producing graduates with the academic proficiency and skills needed for a global competitive workforce. The United States ranked 30th in math and 20th in reading among 65 countries worldwide in 2012. In spite of the mandates and initiatives that stemmed from the famous Nation at Risk report to the U.S. in 1983, that addressed the shrinking student skill levels, the U.S. is still a nation at risk.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a means to alleviate poverty, the Chinese government has been investing in education by increasing financial resources for schools. However, scholarship on the relationship between school re- sources and student academic performance has not reached a consensus. This study examines the relationship between school-level expenditures, a key aspect of school resources, and student academic performance. Using data collected in 94 rural primary school in designated poverty areas of western rural China, the empirical study found that school expenditures on students and teachers account for only 12% of total expenditures, while expenditures on school administration is as high as 72%. Expenditures on students and teachers (software) are positively correlated with student academic performance. However, expenditures on school administration (hardware) were negatively correlated with academic performance. These findings have strong implications for the structure of school spending and rural education.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine if a relationship exists between expenditure for technology, instructional resource, and professional development and positively impacts at risk student achievement. The problem addressed was: Over three years, do variations in expenditures for technology, instructional resources, and curriculum and professional development relate to educational achievement for at risk students? Previous studies in the area of at risk student achievement and the relationship of technology have produced mixed results. The four research questions asked if per student technology, instructional resources, and curriculum and staff development expenditures relate to English Language Arts, mathematics, science, and social studies at risk student achievement as measured by state accountability test. The population studied was Texas public school districts with high schools serving grades 9–12 who had three years of at risk student data in the state's academic excellence indicator system (AEIS) reports for the 2007–2008, 2008–2009, and 2009–2010 school years. The units of analysis for the study were data aggregated at the district level. The percentage of at risk students passing the state-mandated standardized exit level, eleventh grade, tests for English Language Arts, mathematics, science, and social studies served as dependent variables. Independent variables consisted of per student expenditures for technology, instructional resources including media services and curriculum and professional development. A hierarchal regression model tested the relationship between the independent variables and the dependent variables, while controlling for the percentage of White Non-Hispanic students. Results showed that for each subject area and year of the study, the hierarchical regression model showed no relationship between per student expenditure and at risk student achievement on the state mandated eleventh grade test. This led to the conclusion that when the percent of White Non-Hispanic students is controlled, there is no relationship between at risk student achievement and per student expenditure in the area of technology access, implementation, and instructional integration.
