Download or read book Equity and Adequacy in Education Finance written by Committee on Education Finance and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-02-26 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spending on K-12 education across the United States and across local school districts has long been characterized by great disparities--disparities that reflect differences in property wealth and tax rates. For more than a quarter-century, reformers have attempted to reduce these differences through court challenges and legislative action. As part of a broad study of education finance, the committee commissioned eight papers examining the history and consequences of school finance reform undertaken in the name of equity and adequacy. This thought-provoking, timely collection of papers explores such topics as: What do the terms "equity" and "adequacy" in school finance really mean? How are these terms relevant to the politics and litigation of school finance reform? What is the impact of court-ordered school finance reform on spending disparities? How do school districts use money from finance reform? What policy options are available to states facing new challenges from court decisions mandating adequacy in school finance? When measuring adequacy, how do you consider differences in student needs and regional costs?

Download or read book The Search for Equity in School Finance written by Stephen J. Carroll and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes outcomes of school finance reform in California, Florida, Kansas, Michigan, and New Mexico. Spending for education rose impressively in these states, but reform did little to equalize the distributions of revenues or instructional expenditures. Local property taxes for education declined in all the states but Michigan and became significantly more equal among school districts. Reform weakened the link between districts' revenues and their communities' property tax bases and, in most cases, their income levels. Reform generally had little effect on the distribution of revenues among district types. Reform did little to equalize districts' spending outcomes and opportunities probably because of the simultaneous pursuit of diverse and often conflicting objectives, and the add-ons and adjustments that states made to their basic finance plans, usually with disequalizing effects.
