Sixteen Kansas districts rated highly resource efficient
Standard & Poor's released a preliminary audit naming 16 Kansas school districts as highly resource effective in using money to reach academic goals. Districts include Geary County and Scott County and the list covers districts with over 200 students. The study, funded by the Kauffman Foundation, compares districts on input and outcomes, noting some spend more on instruction yet not necessarily more effective. Governor Sebelius says results show where to improve and protect tax dollars. a final report will follow later this year with closer reviews of four districts.
