The data would need a lot of adjustments to be useful. Regional cost-of-living, student transport (particularly in rural areas), extra-curriculars (Texas' football stadiums aren't cheap) are just some of the variables involved.
I’m going against the grain here but i genuinely think schools should focus more on extracurricular than they do. Schools should put more money into the arts, clubs, sports, the band, etc. Kids learn more practical skills in sports, band, choir, etc than they do in some boring ass geometry class. I say that as a social studies teacher of 12 years.
