1 School Funding Victor Cartagena Research Question: Does school funding help improve the student’s test scores?

2 Review of literature In Arizona, school funding is in the bottom four of the nation when it comes to how much money per pupil. $7,666 Not many people know about how poor our state does People do not believe that schools should be receiving more money Arizona need to pay schools about 1.3 billion dollars Which is just the national minimum Other states have noticed improvement in their schools when they give them more money

10 Conclusion In conclusion there is a reason why Arizona is one of the lowest in test scores in the nation I personally think if you look at how much we are funding our schools compared to the other states, that can be a huge reason why we are one of the lowest Arizona is in the bottom four with only about $7,666 per pupil Many people do not understand about school funding and that can be a reason it is so low and nobody cares about it. It is a never ending battle between money and test scores They won’t give a school more money if they are doing poorly in their test scores, but money will help the test scores

11 Recommendations Get aware of / understand the problem Spend the money more efficiently Arizona needs to pay up The bill will help! Students need to work harder Educators need to be better
