A 1920s analysis argues Seattle schools carry large debt backed by bonds and warrants while waste grows in miscellaneous expenses. It cites $10.4 million in school property value, $5.87 million in bonded debt, and $3 million unsold bonds, with funds diverted to administration and political appointees.
