Plaintiff districts in Wisconsin funding suit outpace statewide per-pupil revenue

Wyatt Eichholz

A group of five school districts, along with teachers’ unions and other advocacy groups, is suing the Wisconsin Legislature, alleging that the state is failing to provide adequate public-school funding.

The complaint also criticizes the state’s funding of parental choice programs, claiming such programs take aid from public schools (in reality, they do not reducefunding available to districts).

Madison taxpayers have long supported far above average (now > $26,000 per student) K-12 tax & spending practices. This, despite long term, disastrous reading results.
