Böcker av Bruce D. Baker

This inspiring account of bipartisan political success delivers an expert breakdown of how and why Kansas - a politically conservative state - was able to craft a stable, balanced and equitable system of funding for its public schools.

Offers a comprehensive examination of how US public schools receive and spend money. Drawing on extensive longitudinal data and numerous studies of states and districts, Bruce Baker provides a dismaying portrait of the stagnation of state investment in public education and the challenges of achieving equity and adequacy in school funding.
