Synopsis
Money and Schools explains and demonstrates the relationship between money and equality of educational opportunity in a way that is clear, precise, and engaging. Grounded in research and best practices, this book provides a broad overview of school finance, budgeting, and resource allocation, an understanding of the underlying economic, social, legal, and political principles that drive how schools are funded, as well as a detailed examination of day-to-day funding operations. Rich pedagogical features include chapter drivers, point/counterpoint discussions, case studies, portfolio exercises, and web and recommended resources. This accessible and engaging book offers strong connections to real-world experiences and detailed information on preK–12 funding history, concepts, and current operations for both aspiring and experienced education leaders in school budgeting, finance, and resource management courses. New to this edition: Coverage of new concepts and trends, such as the political economy and culture of public education. Inclusion of cutting-edge research on the impacts of money on student learning outcomes. Expanded chapter-by-chapter annotations and recommended resources that point readers to other resources and explain key concepts in greater detail.
