An Analysis of Resource Inequality at the State, District, and School Levels.

Burke, Sarah M.

Journal of Education Finance, v24 n4 p435-58 Spr 1999

Uses school-level data to measure distribution of educational resources within districts, between districts, and among schools within the states, focusing on quantity (but not quality) of teachers allocated to students. Results confirm that school-level teacher-distribution inequalities exist both within and across districts. Implications are discussed. (32 footnotes) (MLH)
