Book excerpt: School district reorganization is a phenomenon that communities and boards of education have been forced to consider many times throughout the history of public education in New York State and across the nation. The current state aid formula employed by New York State todistribute education aid to school districts disadvantages the neediest school districts in the state, leaving those communities without the necessary resources to prepare students for college and careers in the 21st century (Timbs, 2013). Coupled with the fact that many school districts across the state have tapped into their available reserves, many school districts are on the vergeof financial and educational insolvency (The Council of State Superintendents, 2012). Participants in this study were comprised of five New YorkState school district leadership teams consisting of a superintendent, business official, and a board member that experienced failed school district reorganization efforts during the calendar year 2012. This study addressed what the effects of choosing not to reorganize have been, and what the future holds for those districts. This qualitative research has the potential to inform the field in terms of the decisions that school districts are making as a result of failed efforts, as well as the potentialto influence state policy and law makers to generate alternatives to what current law. Findings showed that school districts facing declining enrollment, dwindling resources, and diminishing resources in New York State have little choice but to consider school district reorganization as a viable alternative under current law. As a result of the findings, it is recommended that New York State statutes and regulations regarding school district reorganization be overhauled to reflect the demographic and economic realities of the 21st century in New York State and to promote equity for all students in the state.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School district consolidation is a contentious policy debated and implemented in states across the nation. Though consolidation occurred rapidly throughout the 20th century, with the number of districts falling from over 120,000 to approximately 13,000, and several states and communities continue to mandate or incentivize it, little is known about the effects of the policy on student learning or the efficient use of the public's resources. The purpose of this dissertation is to describe recent school district consolidation in the United States and estimate the effects of one mandatory consolidation policy on student and financial outcomes. Using national and state administrative records and media reports of mergers, I counted the number of consolidations between 2000 and 2015 and examined the characteristics of affected districts. I found that one of every nine districts was part of a consolidation during this period. Most of the mergers melded a very low-enrollment rural district into a much larger neighbor, but some consolidations paired multiple high-enrollment urban districts. Consolidating districts were above-average spenders but generally carried little debt. To examine the efficiency effects of consolidation, I studied student and spending outcomes of a 2004 Arkansas law that established minimum district enrollments. From a differences-in-differences analysis, I found that graduation rates were negatively affected by consolidation while the effect on spending was negligible. Some administrative expense savings, specifically targeted by the legislation, were realized through a reduction in the number of central office personnel, but increases in transportation spending offset half of the small savings. These findings suggest that efficiency improvements should not be expected to automatically follow from school district consolidation. The results of the descriptive analysis, in conjunction with the many mandatory consolidation proposals under consideration in states across the nation, highlight the need for an acceleration of research into the effects of school district consolidation on community resources and student learning and life outcomes.
