[QUOTE="crrcboatz, post: 2468998, member: 32702"] I appreciate you asking for statistics. The most current available are for 2012 for both votech and state public to compare. Since funding has dropped since then it would be safe to assume the current stats would be worse than this. State career tech centers enrollment of high school students 16,348 State funding for career tech centers 107,064,632 dollars my math translates that to $10,310 per student. State of Oklahoma per student spending for 2012 $7587 Career Tech enrollment 16,348 Full time instructional staff 1,193 My simple math indicates that is 13/1 student teacher ratio Oklahoma figures last available was 29/1 student teacher ratio Now with regard to teacher salaries of career centers in metro areas, my wife retired 2 yrs ago with 35 yrs teaching experience at tulsa technology center. Her base salary was $60,088 She does not have a masters degree and worked 10 months a year. He benefits package was an additional 9,000+ a year. We have a friend there that was a counselor. Her base salary was $89000+ with a similar benefit package. The figures for career tech information came from here [url]http://www.okcareertech.org/about/annual-report-fast-facts/annual-report-2012-1/view[/url] So with the pay these people make, the teacher student ratio, and the [B]PALACES[/B] they all work in, I hope people wake up a little on the vo tech windfall that is out there. Oh and don't forget they get to interview and hand pick their students at these centers. They also purposefully don't offer much for handicapped and special ed students. They don't want to be bothered with them. One other figure as food for thought, of the 7587 dollars Oklahoma spends only about $4800+ comes from STATE funding. That means only about 63% of the total is supplied by our state. The remainder is federal dollars. [/QUOTE]
