41. State Standards of Quality Funding Do Not Reflect True Costs of K-12 System State does not pay for all Board of Education approved standards; overemphasizes the lower values in the more numerous, smaller/rural school divisions in calculating prevailing costs; does not reflect real- time salary costs in re-benchmarking; and localities often go beyond state mandates to meet SOL and SOA requirements. All localities spent $6.84 billion for school division operations in FY 2013, or $3.55 billion (108%) above RLE. All localities provided 56 percent of state-local funding for K-12. All school divisions exceeded RLE in FY 13. ◦Divisions at or Below 25% 12 ◦Divisions Exceeding 25% to 75% 51 ◦Divisions Exceeding 76% to 100% 31 ◦Divisions Exceeding 100% 42 41
