| Abstract | What is the cost of providing all New York public school students a full opportunity to meet the Regents Learning Standards? This report presents the results of a fifteen-month project undertaken jointly by American Institutes for Research (AIR) and Management Analysis and Planning, Inc. (MAP) to answer this question. This is a "costing out" study. "Costing out" is a term regularly applied to this type of analysis of adequacy in education. In the course of this endeavor, the AIR/MAP team obtained input from professional educators and held conversations with representatives of taxpayers, school board members, parents, legislators, and other interested constituencies. The focus of this study is based on the fact that excluding transportation and debt service, public schools in New York State spent about $31.71 billion in 2001-02 to educate its students. The study suggests that an additional $6.21 to $8.40 billion would have been necessary in this same school year to ensure a "full opportunity to meet the Regents Learning Standards" to all students. Essentially, the study's findings indicate that across this range of added expenditure, about 520 districts would have required additional funds, while the remaining 160 districts in the state were already spending at "adequate" levels. Chapters in Volume 1 include: (1) Introduction and Overview; (2) Measuring Pupil Need through the Professional Judgment Process; (3) Geographic Cost Differences; (4) "Costing Out" Adequacy: The Results; and (5) Conclusion. Volume 2 presents the following appended materials: (1) Public Engagement Forum: Adequate Funding for New York's Schools; (2) Details of the Professional Judgment and Stakeholder Panels; (3) Details of the Cost Calculation Worksheets; (4) Instructional Program Descriptions; (5) Program Descriptions Produced by the Special Education PJPs; (6) Stakeholder Meeting Notes; (7) The Worksheets and Analysis at the Various Stages of the PJP Process; (8) Determining "Adequate" Resources for New York's Public Schools: Expert Opinion Reports; (9) Analysis of Success in New York Schools; (10) Analysis of Teacher Labor Markets; (11) District by District Actual Spending and Projections of "Adequacy" Costs by Simulation Model; and (12) Selected Sensitivity Analysis of Program Alternatives. (Contains 89 footnotes and 55 exhibits.) [This report was also produced by Management Analysis and Planning, Inc.] (ERIC). |
