oct 1, 2007 - Costing-Out study

Description:

The state released a “costing-out study” ordered by the legislature that evaluated each of the 500 districts, estimating the cost of providing all students with an adequate education. It set spending goals for each district and a state aid formula to work toward those goals. The study said that $4.4 billion more in spending was required for all districts to reach adequacy, $1 billion of that for Philadelphia.
