This book was released on 1999-02-12 with total page 328 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 disparitiesâ€"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?

This book was released on 2007 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores equity implications and the associated student performance outcomes of the 'Robin-Hood' school finance equalization plan in the state of Texas from 1992 through 2002. Statistical and regression analyses indicate that inequities in total spending between school districts still exist despite implementation of the finance reform plan. The analyses also indicate that a larger share of equalization resources is allocated to districts with the lowest property wealth per student. The largest share of incremental resources is allocated towards capital spending followed by instruction. In general, fiscal resources redistributed from wealthy to less wealthy school districts form a surprisingly small component of total per pupil expenditure. Fixed-effects regressions reveal that no strong correlations between fiscal resources and student performance exist, and that an achievement gap persists between White students on one hand and African-American, Hispanic and Native-American students on the other.
