Using School-Level Data To Explore Resources and Outcomes in Texas.

Clark, Catherine

Journal of Education Finance, v23 n3 p374-89 Win 1998

Describes three major expenditure categories and school-level operating costs in eight large Texas districts. Teacher salary costs are the primary determinate of resource differences among schools. An analysis of districts' fiscal and performance data shows that resources directed toward greatest student need are inadequate to overcome poverty handicaps. Contains 28 references. (MLH)
