Here is an example: School district budget: 11.3m

Salaries: 4.5m

Benefits: 3m

That's for ~220 students and ~30 full time teachers...

$51K is being spent per student per year? And $150K salary and $100K benefits per teacher? Even if there is a school district with that budget, it is hardly representative of most school districts.

they have some part time teachers - but that is about the gist of it...and the outcomes not super impressive for the money...
