Myron Lieberman, Charlene K Haar

Public Education as a Business

Real Costs and Accountability

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book brings to light fascinating details about the real cost of public education--one of America's biggest industries. It demonstrates that government statistics on the costs of public education substantially understate the actual costs to taxpayers. The phasing in of new and more accurate reporting requirements by 2006 will help in determining the real cost of public education.
