Is there any evidence that funding causes better

better learning than a highly funded school now

There are a bunch of studies showing an inverse relationship, at least
up to a point. For example some of the Western states (Idaho is one)
that have low cost/student support for education yet have very high
graduation rates, post secondary rates, and average SAT?ACT scores.

I would think that strong families and hard work
mean more than dollars per student. As such, the
scream about Scott Walker cutting funding isn't
really relevant to the children.
