Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) surveys the changing landscape in education finance by commissioning papers from members of the school finance research community. Papers that address the questions of the current and future financial condition for school districts are presented here. The papers, which are intended to promote the exchange of ideas among researchers and policymakers, take two separate tacks. One set explores the present financial condition of school districts, focusing on how a retiring work force may influence the finances of school districts, how school districts respond to fiscal exigencies, and the efficacy of urban school districts. The other papers propose an imaginative new way of funding education, at the school level, and simulates the results for Texas, offering a summary of issues and problems related to school-based funding approaches. The recurrent theme revolves around the proposition that state aid should be distributed to schools rather than to school districts. Some of the specific topics addressed here include the dynamics of teacher salary expense, how school districts respond to fiscal constraint, the condition of urban school finance, reinventing education finance, and exploring alternatives for school-based funding.

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.

Download or read book State and Local Finances Under Pressure written by David L. Sjoquist and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State and Local Finances under Pressure explores the future of state and local government fiscal systems given the numerous pressures they face from economic, legal, technological, demographic and political forces. It explores how these multiple forces play out in terms of the changes state and local governments should and are likely to make. The contributors argue that state and local governments must make substantial changes and that failure to act is likely to result in adverse effects and increasing pressures for modifications that are more difficult to implement and more politically unpalatable. Without reform, state and local fiscal systems will grow increasingly out of sync with economic reality. The authors suggest that government responses are likely to be evolutionary, but that in 25 years the recorded changes will be substantial. The first chapter provides a historic perspective of state and local fiscal trends. Each of the subsequent chapters describes the nature of one of the pressures state and local governments face including: political and legal forces, globalization of business, demographic and technological changes, deregulation of utilities, and urban sprawl. Policymakers, economists, political scientists, fiscal policy analysts and public administrators will find this comprehensive book of interest.
