State Report Card

Here you will find charts and tables that present information about school finances and school spending. Some of the tables that follow rank the school districts based on per-pupil spending. Others give information about sources of revenue, ranking school districts on their tax capacity and their willingness to tap local funds to pay for schooling.

Some information is broken down so that you can see what percentage of expenditures, on a statewide basis, is allocated toward particular programs. All of this information is essential as school officials set their spending priorities, which must be based on the needs of the students.
