Compare School Costs

Re “Affluent Town’s District Is Short of Funds,” Dec. 25: Your interesting article on the Manhattan Beach Unified School District’s expense crunch deserves what would be an interesting article on the average cost per student (approximately $7,650 annually, in the case of Manhattan Beach) of all other local school districts. Such an article would strike a blow for transparency and set off a lively discussion. It would also throw a spotlight on some districts that are not presently accountable. I suspect that there are many jurisdictions whose police and fire departments are overstaffed also.
