Abstract	There has been great interest in disparities in revenues and expenditures of school districts based upon the school district's educational background, median family income, and racial makeup. Accordingly, this study correlates each school districts' expenditures, various supports, and revenues with the district's educational background, median family income, racial makeup, and dropout rate, using one-way analysis of variance. Findings, reported in a series of tables, include the following: (1) an inverse correlation between dropout rate and expenditures, except for general administration; (2) a correlation between median family income and educational revenues and expenditures, except in general administration and adult education; (3) higher expenditures for noninstructional expenses in school districts with 20-80 percent black students than in those with a lower or higher percentage of black students; (4) a correlation between the percentage of black students and the dropout rate.
