At the state level, however, the money is often not used for local schools but to fund an administrative superstructure which does little if anything to positively influence or affect educational outcomes. That's precisely what I was going to say in response to your first para. Feeding more money to a bureaucracy gives you a larger, more inefficient and slower bureaucracy. And parents being involved in their kids educations, helping them, and pushing them is worth more than money. It makes the difference. I usually vote for increasing my own taxes to fund the local schools. I vote NO for the reasons cited above. And I expect nothing form AS and I'm sure I won't be disappointed.
