[QUOTE="crrcboatz, post: 2469218, member: 32702"] I would bet I understand the state funding formula for public schools better than 99% of the public including you. Vo tech STEALS funding from the state of Oklahoma for the purpose of educating a small selected number of students, then uses the majority of those funds to educate adults. That is not hard to understand from the link I gave you. You can choose to not discuss that but it is plain and simple. If public schools had a larger portion of those funds they deserve the education picture would be far different. Vo tech is a huge cloud of hot air that has long been hidden from the public's eye in the area of finance. You will not find an area votech administrator that is willing to have that conversation. Why? They cannot defend it just as you cannot. They cannot defend and [B]avg of 13 students \ day[/B] while public school teachers must deal with 29-40 per day. They cannot defend $10000 plus in per pupil expenditure for high school students while public schools struggle with $7500 per student. They cannot defend educating mostly adult students under the pretense that those dollars are going for ADULT students who belong under the Regents for Higher Education. They cannot defend the Palaces they work in that were built with local funds to educate those 13 students / day while public schools handle 2-3 times more than that. They cannot defend a pay scale that far exceeds the avg public school's for[B] many teachers that do not even have a 4 yr degree. They cannot defend hand picking their students, then sending them back to their home high schools if they don't like their conduct. They cannot defend not educating more than a handful of special education students. This could go on and on and on. Yes votech is a baseless cloud that the public will at some time figure out and also hopefully put it where it belongs, IN HIGHER EDUCATION UNDER THE STATE REGENTS. Who ever you really are, I would be more than glad to sit down with you and discuss the state funding formula for public schools. Name the time and place. Some of my fellow administrators would greatly enjoy that conversation. [/B] [/QUOTE]
