摘要

根据格鲁吉亚预算和政策研究所(GBPI)的报告,影响格鲁吉亚K-12和高等教育系统财务状况的紧迫问题涉及32年前设计的过时的拨款公式(即优质基础教育(QBE))。最终,GBPI表明,过时的量表不能满足学生日益增长的需求,特别是高学业成就目标和低收入学生数量的增加。此外,GBPI报告称,格鲁吉亚目前在每个学生身上的投资比全国平均水平少1965美元。虽然,大会在教师工资领域增加了1.6亿美元的预算,假设是为了避免教师罢工(如俄克拉何马州、西弗吉尼亚州、亚利桑那州)和过度更替(如南卡罗来纳州)在工会和工作权利州都看到的问题,但扭转该州公立学校削减方案的进展受到阻碍。自2003年以来,总共从公共教育中削减了超过92亿美元。在这个高度问责的时代,考虑到通货膨胀和学校日益增长的需求,学校努力提供必要的支持和学习条件来实现学术目标。其他紧迫的问题仍然存在于格鲁吉亚学前教育项目的学生教师比例方面;因此,学生与教师的比例超过了1:20的质量标准。虽然大会在教师薪金方面增加了对近东救济工程处的供资,但对资源的需求仍然很大;例如,新的学前教育项目的启动成本,以解决由于容量问题而排在候补名单上的学生数量。在高等教育方面,尽管乔治亚州的教育彩票系统因其对学生的学费援助而受到尊敬,但在过去10年里,拨款方面发生了变化,学生们普遍支付了更多的学费和费用,即使是那些有资格获得教育彩票奖学金的学生也是如此。

priorities and pressing state issues affecting p–12/higher education 1 As reported by the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute (GBPI), pressing issues impacting the financial condition of Georgia’s K-12 and higher education systems involve the outdated funding formula (i.e. Quality Basic Education (QBE)) designed 32 years ago. Ultimately, GBPI indicates that the outdated scale does not address the growing needs of students, particularly the high academic achievement goals and the increased number of low-income students. In addition, GBPI reports that Georgia is currently investing $1,965 less per student than the national average. Although, the General Assembly added $160 million to the budget in the area of teacher salaries, assuming to avoid issues of teacher strikes (i.e., Oklahoma, West Virginia, Arizona) and excessive turnover (i.e., South Carolina) seen in both Unionized and Right-to-Work states, progress toward reversing the cuts in the state’s formula for public schools has stymied. Since 2003, over $9.2 billion has been collectively cut from public education. Considering inflation and the growing needs of schools in this era of high accountability, schools struggle to provide the necessary support and learning conditions to meet academic goals. Other pressing issues remain in the area of student teacher ratios in Georgia’s Pre-K program; whereby, student to teacher ratios exceed the quality standard of one-to-twenty. Although the general assembly increased funding to GA PreK in the area of teacher salaries, there still remains a high need for resources; for instance in the area of start-up costs for new Pre-K programs to address the number of students on waitlists because of capacity issues. In terms of higher education, although Georgia’s education lottery system is revered for its tuition assistance for students, over the last 10 years there has been a shift in appropriations in which students at large are paying more in tuition and fees, even those who qualify for education lottery scholarship funds.
