New York is in the midst of a school funding war. The Post had an interesting op-ed that points out that money alone does not improve schools. It doesn't, but I do think it is part of the cocktail of factors that makes a good school. After all, the better suburban schools do spend a lot of money. And many inner city schools are in need of basic supplies. NYC teachers have to beg on the internet for chalk and books, and mismanagement can't take all the blame. Some day I'll write more about this.
