Government schools indulge in creative book keeping...the only true figure is total icome in, divided by the number of students.
According to figures published in the 1 February 2007 issue of this state's largest newspaper, THE OREGONIAN:
State K-12 government schools budget..$6.3 BILLION
number of students...562,828
$11,193.47 each.
Yet the state education department claims a cost of around $8,000 per kid per year. Why the difference?
