A new report confirms what recent research has shown: spending more on public schools doesn’t necessarily lead to better outcomes.

In fact, states such as Texas and Florida that spend below the national average on students have better results – highlighting the value of educational efficiency and educational freedom.

An analysis of a report from the liberal Education Law Center found high-spending New York scoring slightly below the national average on the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), commonly known as the Nation’s Report Card since it is the only K-12 test taken in all states.
