Have you ever seen a list of the cost/student of public schools around the country? It's so ridiculous! There are some school districts here in NY, where, because of special education requirements, and likely bussing expenses, the cost per student is over $30,000/yr. School districts with costs per student in the $25,000/yr range are very common, with it probably likely that no district has less than $20,000/yr per student now. (now you've got me curious and I need to look it up again; but it will just make me mad! :) )

The kindergarten teacher that lives on my street makes $89,000 a year. Plus benefits.
