Nearly 40 percent of the nation's elementary, middle and high schools spend less than $5 per student on software a figure which proves that technology has yet to permeate all subjects and lesson plans, said Sue Kamp, SIIA's director for the education market division. "It's just peanuts," Kamp said. "And it shows that if schools only have that amount to spend, they are not spending it on the entire curriculum but on targeted areas." SIIA research did not turn up a single subject as the most popular for software sales but instead clustered buying in reading, science and arts. "One of those is ahead, but not consistently." SIIA also noted in its "1999 Education Market Report: K-12" an upward trend in schools' purchase of administrative software. "One future trend we are predicting is an effort to make sure administrative and instructional systems are integrated," Kamp said.

Home Pennsylvania Education Finance Letter Published by The Education Policy and Leadership Center 800 North Third Street, Harrisburg, PA 17102 717-260-9900 (voice) - 717-260-9903 (fax) - www.eplc.org August 19, 2003 - #1 STATE GOVERNMENT SHORTCHANGES PENNSYLVANIA'S STUDENTS Following the recent release of test scores and ratings for all Pennsylvania public schools as required by the No Child Left Behind Act, officials in Harrisburg and Washington noted that school districts and individual schools can no longer rely upon relatively high district-wide or school-wide averages to mask the serious achievement gaps that often exist among students and schools. Nonetheless, some Harrisburg lawmakers speak with a different view when the issue is accountability for state government rather than for schools and educators. Defenders of the status quo have argued that Pennsylvania school districts on average have relatively high spending per student because Pennsylvania taxpayers are already very generous with public education. But the truth is that Pennsylvania's approach to school funding is among the most unfair in the nation. It is a non-system that ignores the fundamental principles of a sound statewide education finance system. It is an approach that suffers from the stinginess and arbitrariness of state funding, even though the worst effects for students are sometimes ameliorated where local taxpayers have the means and the will to be more generous. In its annual report card on state education policy, Education Week grades Pennsylvania a D- and ranks us among the bottom five states on the principle of equity.

In the 1974-1975 school year, the Pennsylvania state government provided 55% of education expenses for public schools. In the 2000-2001 school year, the state provided an average of only 35% of these funds. There is now an $8,466 gap between what the highest and lowest spending school districts spend per pupil. The highest spending district spent $12,691 per student; in 2001-2002; the lowest only $4,225. This translates into a $211,650 per classroom of 25 students. (Source: Pennsylvania Department of Public Education) Pennsylvania is second worst in the nation in terms of the state share of education costs and whether education funds in the state are spent fairly across the Commonwealth.
