Lakewood Schools Administrative Costs

Interesting article in today's (2/23/2010) Columbus Dispatch. It's actually about a Brookings Institution study that advocates a reduction in the number of public school districts in Ohio, but finishes up with a comparison of the wide range of administrative costs per district. Lakewood is mentioned.

Columbus Dispatch wrote:The study recommends that the Ohio Department of Education require each district to spell out it how much it spends per pupil on administrative costs compared with instructional spending. The statewide average is 21 cents for each $1. However, that amount varies dramatically, from 11 cents in Lakewood in Cuyahoga County to 68 cents in Jefferson Township in Montgomery County.
