Book excerpt: The Commission to Study the Adequacy and Equity of Certain Cost Components of the School Funding Formula was created in legislation crafted by the Joint Standing Committee on Education of the 126th Legislature (the "Education Committee"). The legislation was enacted as Resolve 2014, chapter 114. Creation of the Commission is the latest step in a multi-year process undertaken to review the state's education funding formula, the Essential Programs and Services (EPS) funding formula. That process began with the Education Committee of the 125th Legislature, which authorized the Legislature to enter into a contract with a qualified research entity to conduct an independent review of the EPS Funding Act. Lawrence O. Picus and Associates, a California research organization, was awarded the contract for the independent review. Seven topics were identified as priority actions and duties for the Commission to Strengthen the Adequacy and Equity of Certain Cost Components of the School Funding Formula that included: (1) Public preschool programs for children 4 years of age; (2) Support for economically disadvantaged students; Title I funds, extended school day, and summer school; (3) Professional development and collaborative time needed to implement proficiency-based learning; (4) Regional cost adjustments for teacher salaries; (5) Debt service for locally approved school construction projects; (6) Special education allocation for minimum subsidy receivers; and (7) State contribution to fund the cost of the unfunded actuarial liability for retired teachers. The report provides descriptions and materials related to each section of the Resolve and the final recommendations made by the commission for each section. Materials used by the commission during their deliberations appear in a series of appendices. [This study was funded by the Maine State Legislature, and the University of Maine System.].

Book excerpt: Improving the quality of public education is high on the policy agenda in Washington and in state capitals throughout the country. Despite disagreement over specific policies, policymakers appear to recognize that an important element in any plan to improve educational quality is the measurement of student performance. Here, it is argued that most state systems of school finance have not adapted to the new emphasis on student performance and educational adequacy. An important reason that they generally have done a poor job in financing an adequate education is that many formulas that allocate state funds to local school districts fail to recognize that the amount of money needed to provide students with an adequate education varies among school districts. A statistical approach to the measurement of the costs of public education and a means of integrating information on costs into school-aid formulas designed to provide funding for educational adequacy are demonstrated in this report. An approach for estimating school-district costs is also described. Finally, a cost-adjusted foundation formula is demonstrated that is designed to guarantee sufficient funding to all school districts in order to provide their students with an adequate education. (Contains 21 references.).
