[QUOTE="Scottydog, post: 2465873, member: 6173"] "The general fund, and for some programs grant funds, are what pay salaries which are usually the largest annual expense a district has. So if you increase staff to educate and support a student population which has grown over time([I]also mandated[/I], and you factor in state mandated salary tables([I]Which are lowest in the area states, and maybe near the bottom of the nation, just don't have exact figures right now)[/I], then cut the funding that pays for those salaries to below what it was 5 years prior [I](because the legislature won't vote to increase or fund the needed deficit)[/I] you place a district in distress. [I]Then you lose the more experienced and well trained teachers to other states, thus lowering the quality of education here, even further.[/I] In a state where we already have one of the lowest expenditures of dollars for students yet have to meet a national college and career ready graduation expectation this is a serious issue. Very True. [/QUOTE]
