Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Control of City School Finances The public schools of America cost money. This cost has constantly increased until today it involves a vast expenditure. Americans no longer doubt the advisability of public schools, but the question of financing these schools is a vital one. It is not the purpose of this book to discuss the merits of different methods of providing funds for the public schools. It shall attempt only to discuss the merits of the different methods of controlling these moneys. In New York City the board of estimate and apportionment controls the granting of money to the schools; in Detroit it is the city council and mayor; in Cleveland it is the county budget commission; in Newark it is the board of school estimate; while in such cities as Philadelphia, Seattle, Chicago and St. Louis, the board of education raises and expends its own funds. The question as to who shall control the raising and disbursing of moneys for the public schools is, and has been for years, a much debated question. It is the purpose of this book to present the different methods used in American cities and to examine and evaluate each in the light of educational efficiency. This book was largely written while the writer was an associate in the Department of Educational Administration at Teachers College, Columbia University, and he is deeply indebted to the faculty of that department for suggestions and help. Acknowledgment is due particularly to Dr. N. L. Engelhardt whose encouragement and advice have been invaluable. The writer is indebted to Dr. George Drayton Strayer for numerous suggestions and for the valuable assistance of the "Committee for Chamber of Commerce Co-operation with the Public Schools" of which he was chairman.
