Since 2014, CPS has distributed funds using a student-based budgeting formula in which schools get money for each student enrolled. This year, the school district started moving away from this method by providing more centrally-funded staff to schools. “Revenue is declining at a much, much slower rate than the declines in student enrollment,” said researcher Forest Gregg. “This actually suggests that there could be some very interesting opportunities for spending more per student.”
If Chicago parents are smart, they will form homeschool co-ops and free the minds of their children. Better yet move to save your kids from predators in the government school system

Gee Whiz,
Looks like layoffs are pending in the CPS/CTU symbiosis.

3 academic years of school lockdowns — critical race theory/pedophile grooming curriculum — teachers who don’t give a **** about students — this number should even higher

Obviously the amount spent per student has ZERO correlation with test scores, but these lefties just can’t help themselves. They continue to repeat the tired, old, lefty mantras from decades ago.

Spinning CPS’ declining enrollment as a good thing for the remaining student body that’s becoming whiter and whiter is certainly one way to spin it.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
