And assuming that there's a connection between pupil spending and pupil achievement, such educational powerhouses as Mississippi and Alabama are getting ahead of California?! <BR/><BR/>My son is a product of public schools in Tennessee, and our family made frequent jokes about public education in the South.

It's ridiculous. I've been calling around to the elementary districts around here and most of them have told me "we are full day this year, but we haven't received the funding for next year yet".
