Averages are skewed by extremes which feeds into my point that the wealthy neighborhoods spend far more on public schools than in poorer communities.
Even with all that, it also means we’re spending nearly $500000 on a classroom in which a teacher makes 40-50k (let’s round that up to 60-80k for the payroll taxes). Where is the rest of the money going? We could have a hard cap on 20 kids and for teacher pay to be more competitive for less money than we spend today.
