Per pupil spending in Oregon is about $9,500 per year.  So for a class of 25 (avg), the spending would be $237,500 for one year.  If the teacher compensation package is $100,000 (avg), where is the other $137,500 going?

For comparison, Utah spends $6,500 per pupil year with comparable scholastic achievement (if not better).

Why does it cost 46% more to educate Oregon kids than it does for Utah kids?  ($6500 x 146% = $9500)

IDEA - Contract Oregon education out to Utah.
