ROY-HART'S EFFICIENCY

Business First, Buffalo’s weekly business newspaper, has done a study that looks at the efficiency of schools across Western New York. Per Business First the study looks at…

“….districts that have the tightest budgets and leanest staffs, regardless of academic performance.

"Each district is assessed in three areas: spending per pupil, ratio of pupils per administrative staffer, and share of budget devoted to debt service. (All statistics are the latest official figures available from the New York State Education Department.) The best scores go to districts with low spending, high pupil-staffer ratios and small amounts of debt service.”


How does Roy-Hart rate?

Of the 98 school districts in WNY, ours is rated the 22nd most efficient, spending $14,317 per pupil.
