Unequal Educational Funding is an interesting subject to discuss. This factor is important because education shapes society. Unequal education opportunities puts us all at an advantage. People can’t get certain knowlege, which means less ideas on improving the world.

1. A large portion of school funding comes through local taxes. This creates a large difference between wealthy & poor communities

2. Difference in educational funding exist in different states, different school districts within each state, and even within districts

3. When states fall under only one school district, there tends to be less of a difference in funding

4. Communities where poverty is rare tend to have a lot of educational funding

5. Communities where poverty is common don’t tend to have as much educational funding

6. Some people resist equalizing funding for everyone do beliefs. One example the amount of educational funding one gains is a result of self effort and/or genetics.

Education is teamwork. It is in everyone’s best interest to make sure everyone has a good education opportunity.
