ALEC Study Questions Link Between Spending and Achievement
The ninth edition of the Report Card on American Education by ALEC argues there is no clear link between inputs like per pupil spending or teacher salaries and outcomes such as standardized test scores. It notes that states with high spending or strong pupil-to-teacher ratio improvements did not rank in the top 10 for academic achievement. The piece advocates parental choice and competition as paths to higher scores and better learning, while urging readers to consider how much money is needed to fix education.
