In 2015, Education Law Center released a report documenting the strain on resources in the Newark Public Schools (NPS). Two years later the district is still feeling the impact of the underfunding of the state's school aid formula and the rapid expansion of the charter sector. Essential resources in district schools have been eroded, depriving students of the opportunity for a thorough and efficient education. NPS has endured multiple years with significantly less funding to educate students, many of whom have extra educational needs, and to address year-to-year increases in fixed costs, such as salaries, benefits and building maintenance. To balance the school budget, NPS has had no alternative but to substantially cut teachers, support staff and special education and other programs, shrinking the resources necessary for all students to achieve the State's Core Curriculum Content Standards (CCCS). In this report the authors analyze the impact of the NPS budget crisis on per pupil spending in district schools. They find that the combined stress of chronic underfunding and rapid charter expansion has significantly lowered spending and reduced staff and programs in district schools.
