A good read from NPR on school funding

It's well worth reading NPR's second chapter in their school funding consideration. Note their key takeways are: yes, of course money matters IF--

• it goes to kids who need it most
• it dependably increases
• it goes to the classroom
• and the impact made isn't only measured by test scores.

On several of these, Massachusetts, as reflected in the article, did quite well.

We aren't doing nearly as well any more.
