My data is a bit out of date. The '03-'04 per pupil costs in the PRNY is $12,638. This is third, behind DC and NJ, which also have crappy schools. The national average was $8,300 in that year. So, we are already ~50% greater than the national average, but our brilliant new Governor sees the need for more money. Yeah, right. No wonder NY is going to hell in a hand basket.
