aid far flat formula four happened last levels promised remained state three worked
What has happened is, not only has CEIFA not really worked as far as the formula goes, but it hasn't been funded to the levels that were promised in it. Consequently, the state aid has remained pretty much flat for the last three or four years.
asset board cost definitely dependent district great individual kids maybe money others people quite reason relationships schools teachers willing work
Some people think that teachers are just out for the money and other people say they're a great asset to the schools and they're the reason the kids do well. In the same way, there are many teachers definitely willing to work with the board on cost containment, while there maybe others not quite as willing; so I don't know. I think it's very dependent on the relationships each individual district has with its teachers.
