Great Data on Why California is Broke:

washingtonpost.com :

Whitman says that 50 percent of California's spending on education, kindergarten through 12th grade, goes into overhead, not classrooms, compared with 20 percent in, for example, Connecticut. The public education lobby likes it that way, but because California elementary school students rank 46th among the states in math, 48th in reading and 49th in science, it is, Whitman says tersely, hard for defenders of the status quo to "hide behind the results."
