If you look at education funding resources over the years, you'll see that the state's share has grown and grown. From that, it seems that the local districts are not keeping up pace. There was a comment on one of Rep. Urqhart's posts on education funding where someone who is on a district board opnely complained about having to be the one to vote to raise his neighbors' taxes. From that comment, it looks like some boards are passing the buck on to the legislature as Rep. Alexander suggested. FYI, The state has not always had such a large share of the education funding pie.
