Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pennsylvania has historically operated one of the nation's least equitable state school finance systems, and within that system exist some of the nation's most fiscally disadvantaged public school districts. The persistent inequalities of Pennsylvania's school finance system are not entirely a result of simple lack of effort, as policies intended to mitigate inequities serve in some cases to exacerbate them. This report provides an overview of the state of school funding in Pennsylvania, a review of current conceptions of educational equity, adequacy and equal opportunity, empirical methods for measuring education costs, current policies across states and recent reforms. The review is organized in three chapters. The first summarizes the current status of the school funding system and student outcomes in Pennsylvania. The second outlines conceptions of equity, adequacy and equal educational opportunity and provides an overview and critique of methods for measuring educational adequacy and informing state school finance policy. The report concludes with an overview of the current landscape of school finance policy, and the intersection between emerging evidence on education costs and state school finance policy design. Appended are: (1) Data Sources; (2) Adjustment Factors in BEF; (3) Pennsylvania Confirmatory Analysis; (4) All States Adjusted NAEP Comparisons; (5) Correlations between Traditional Equity and Neutrality Indicators and Funding Fairness Indicators; (6) Fiscal Neutrality Coefficients; (7) Fixed and Random Effects Models of Gaps and Outcomes; (8) Bridging Pennsylvania State Assessments and SAT College Readiness Benchmarks; (9) Economies of Scale in Education; (10) New York Reforms; and (11) Rhode Island Numbers Games.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States annually spends over $300 billion on public elementary and secondary education. As the nation enters the 21st century, it faces a major challenge: how best to tie this financial investment to the goal of high levels of achievement for all students. In addition, policymakers want assurance that education dollars are being raised and used in the most efficient and effective possible ways. The book covers such topics as: Legal and legislative efforts to reduce spending and achievement gaps. The shift from "equity" to "adequacy" as a new standard for determining fairness in education spending. The debate and the evidence over the productivity of American schools. Strategies for using school finance in support of broader reforms aimed at raising student achievement. This book contains a comprehensive review of the theory and practice of financing public schools by federal, state, and local governments in the United States. It distills the best available knowledge about the fairness and productivity of expenditures on education and assesses options for changing the finance system.
