More than $5 billion per year has been spent on class size reduction hiring additional teachers, the majority of whom were from the bottom of the barrel. The better teachers left bad schools for new openings in good schools. The bad schools got the incompetents that were left.

The poor got screwed by class size reduction. Total spending in California schools (contrary to what the State claims) is now about $9,200 per head. When the State publishes its numbers on per student spending, it does not include Federal or lottery money (among other sources).
