Below is the final part of the School District report card that shows the totals of spending in catergories and compares our district to the State averages. Our district spends less in every category except one and we still provide a quality education to our students.

(1) The Comparative Cost Per Pupil represents comparisons with districts of similar budget type. The components that comprise the comparative cost per pupil are as follows: classroom instructional costs; support services (attendance and social work, health services, guidance office, child study team, library and other educational media); administrative costs (general administration, school administration, business administration, and improvement of instruction); operations/maintenance of plant; food services, and extracurricular costs. The total of these expenditures is divided by the average daily enrollment to calculate a total comparative cost per pupil.

(2) Total Cost Per Pupil, in addition to all of the costs listed above for the comparative cost, includes costs for tuition expenditures; transportation; other current expenses (lease purchase interest, residential costs, and judgments against schools); equipment; facilities/acquisition; and restricted expenses less nonpublic services and adult schools, as well as students sent out of district. The total of all these expenditures is divided by the average daily enrollment, combined with all students sent out of district as reported in the ASSA, to calculate a total cost per pupil.
