Book excerpt: Individual states have a long tradition of providing financial support for their public K-12 schools. This support reflects the state's constitutional requirement to educate its citizens. However, states vary widely in both the amount of funding provided to public schools, and the distribution of funding among schools. The fundamental observation underlying discussions of school finance is that communities vary in the amount of wealth they possess, and that this can affect the financial resources dedicated to providing K-12 education. The most commonly-used indicator of community wealth related to education funding is the assessed valuation of individual and business property within the community. Because communities vary greatly in the amount of taxable property per-pupil, significant variations existed across communities in revenues that could be raised for education. This report provides an overview of the main parts of Indiana's Foundation Program for K-12 education. Rather than focus on the details of the calculations of the Foundation Program, this report describes the purpose of the different parts of the Foundation Program. Readers who are interested in more of the details behind the various calculations presented here are referred to the Digest of Public School Finance, produced by the Indiana Department of Education. As shown here, Indiana's Foundation Program is actually a series of interrelated formulas that are subject to change depending on decisions made by the Indiana Legislature. These changes can affect not only the total amounts of funds given to schools for various purposes, but also how these funds are distributed among corporations. (Contains 6 figures and 19 tables.).

Book excerpt: When all she wanted was to fit in, Tamika Catchings never imagined one day she'd stand out--as a basketball superstar and an inspiration. Catchings faced being set apart by her hearing loss, separation from family, living up to high expectations, and the pain and discouragement of debilitating physical injuries. Yet she reached for the stars with hard work, perseverance, and her faith in God. Through the silence, she found the way to shine. Catch a Star tells Tamika's story of overcoming: of leading the Indiana Fever to its first championship, being named to the WNBA's All Decade Team, earning four Olympic gold medals, and founding the Catch the Stars Foundation to help young people achieve their dreams. Her story will inspire readers to face their doubts and fears, encouraging them to reach for their own stars, no matter what challenges come their way.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By most accounts, the method used to determine the allocation of tuition support to public schools in Indiana is a complex endeavor understood by few. Governor Mitch Daniels and policymakers are publicly calling for a simplified funding process that provides transparent goals that Hoosier citizens can fully comprehend. As state leaders embark on this challenging policy discussion, a common level of understanding is necessary and many key questions must be addressed in the process, including: (1) How does the school funding formula presently work to fund schools? (2) What are the revenue sources for schools and how are these revenues expended? (3) What are the objectives of the formula and are those goals being met? and (4) What are the issues that must be addressed during the 2005 session of the Indiana General Assembly concerning the formula to maximize funding efficiencies? To help demystify the complexities of the school funding formula in Indiana, this policy brief will address these questions and issues head-on. Contents of this issue include: (1) The Shaping of Public School Finance in Indiana; (2) Indiana's Foundation Program: How It Works Today; (3) Adequate Funding for All Schools (Pat Pritchett); (4) Indiana's School Funding Formula: A Need to Get Funding to the Child (Luke Kenley); (5) Indiana's Foundation Program: Has It Achieved Its Goals?; and (6) Expanding the Knowledge Base. (Contains 10 endnotes, 10 figures, and 5 tables.) [This report was produced by the Center for Evaluation & Education Policy.].
