Chapter 6

This chapter was very informational about funding and influences when it comes to schools. I think it is a good thing that the majority of schools have a state board of education. We need people to keep things going financially and make sure schools are performing their duties. When i first found out that when you live somewhere you paid school taxes even if you dont have kids going to that school i thought it was bogas. But now i dont feel that way i mean it stinks for people who dont have kids in the school system but with out their taxes the schools around them would have only the revenues they get from the state and federal levels. Which is not enough for all that a school needs so its harder for schools where there is an insufficent tax base. So i think it is imporatnt for poeple to keep helping fund schools s that the generations to come can have the same education opportunities or more as the generations before.
