Alexander, Nicola A.

Journal of Education Finance, v22 n4 p435-63 Spr 1997

Between the 1982-83 and 1991-92 school years, state and local education revenues increased 39.1% (after removing price increase effects) and 27.8% on a per-pupil basis. Examines revenue variations among states. The growth of real personal income per pupil is a good measure of how much a state's economy expanded in relation to the growth of demand for education.
