Estimating education expenditure and demand functions, this study presents evidence that changes in the state education aid following the education reform resulted in significantly higher student performance. Also, school officials and voters in the dependent school districts in Massachusetts respond to fiscal incentives in much the same way as those in independent school districts in other states. Finally, there are significant differences between regular school districts (coterminous with a single municipality) and regional school districts (consisting of more than one).","PeriodicalId":44075,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education Finance","volume":"39 1","pages":"297 - 322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2014-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66398774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

That every war of consequence since the invention of printing has been followed by an upthrust of literary activity is well-known, but never before in the history of the world has experimental medicine engendered such an astounding proliferation of recorded facts and opinions. The mental symbol is that of Stephen Leacock's young woman who got upon a horse and rode rapidly \"in all directions.\" An example, near at hand, is the immense array of literature upon the active and passive relations of insulin. Billing's young chemist, who attempted to analyze a rat by \"putting the entire animal into his crucible,\" would to-day experiment with the effect of the clear filtrate upon everything and of everything upon the filtrate. The terminology attaching to such literature is equally chaotic, suggesting the need of Occam's razor (entia non sunt multiplicanda) and justifying Fletcher's dictum: \"The whole world is in a conspiracy against bibliographers. \" Where experimentation is either haphazard or radiates from a substance or organ \"in all directions,\" it is obvious that a certain percentage of the problems will be \"illusory problems\" (Scheinprobleme) and a certain proportion of the","PeriodicalId":44075,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education Finance","volume":"39 1","pages":"270 - 272"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2014-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64628079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Concomitantly, of its 5.5 million students, the State of Texas enrolls the second largest population of K–12 English language learners1 nationally, with over 800,000 students—15% of the U.S. population of ELL students—approximately 17% of Texas’ K–12 population (Flores, Batalova, and Fix 2012). At the same time, among school districts with the largest number of students classified as ELLs, Texas superintendents manage four (i.e., Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, and Houston) of the top 20 districts in the country (Pandya, Batalova, and McHugh 2011). And, similar to other states in the Southwest (e.g. Arizona, New Mexico, or Nevada), the overwhelming majority of students receiving ELL services in Texas are Spanish speakers. Within this context, the general purpose of this article is to extend the examination of previous efficacy analyses of Texas’ education finance system (Rolle, Torres, and Eason 2010; Rolle and Wood 2012) by paying particular attention to the ability of the Texas Foundation School Program (FSP) to generate revenue to support ELL educational activities. Specifically, this article will examine the efficacy of formula components within the Texas funding mechanism—that is, how individual components within the Texas FSP act as significant predictors of combined state and local revenue. In addition, in order to focus specifically on the varying concentrations of students defined as ELLs, this article also will examine the efficacy of individual components within the Texas funding mechanism for five sub-groups of districts—stratified by percentage of students defined as ELLs quintiles—","PeriodicalId":44075,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Education Finance","volume":"39 1","pages":"203 - 221"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2014-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66398757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
