Clarence BOE pass budget

[NY The Vampire State]

Do they?

has anyone actually confirmed this?

Are revenue sources different in other state yet spending per student is the same?

A large part of our taxes on our home is school tax. If the state paid for education the cost to live in my home would prob be 1/2.

Quick search came up with this:

Total expenditures for public elementary and secondary schools in the United States amounted to $632 billion in 2010–11, or $12,608 per public school student (in constant 2012–13 dollars, based on the Consumer Price Index). These expenditures include $11,153 per student in current expenditures for operation of schools; $1,076 for capital outlay (i.e., expenditures for property and for buildings and alterations completed by school district staff or contractors); and $379 for interest on school debt.

Clarence does it for around $18,000 and that does not include the capital outlay.

BPS must hold a world record at $28k

Here is an interesting site too: Of course NY way up on the top of this list.
