I always figure education that way. I set aside a really nice cost for the teacher like 100,000, that includes 30% for benefits and retirement. I know it’s a little high, but easy to calculate and which union would argue that?
So anything above that would fund the front office, supplies, maintenance, and district administration.
So in this scenario the classroom tax budget would be 590,000 for 20 student per and 8 classrooms in an elementary school would have $3,020,000 for everything out of the classroom expenses.
Seems way too high.
If the cost per student was $40,000 times 25 students, there would $1 million in funding per classroom.
Issues funding workers comp, law suits and settlements, and retiree income.
and where is all that money going?
